The Cabinet
George Washington and the Creation of an American Institution
Lindsay M. Chervinsky
Discover the fascinating story of how George Washington created one of the most powerful bodies in the federal government - the presidential cabinet. Faced with constant crises and lacking congressional help, Washington modeled his cabinet on councils of war and expanded the role of the president and the executive branch. Lindsay M. Chervinsky's The Cabinet explores the tensions within the cabinet that heightened partisanship and contributed to the development of the first party system.
