Lawrence Washington, Proprietor of Mount Vernon on the Protomac George Washington while studying surveying had also theoretically studied navigation; but this voy age offered an exceptionally good opportunity for him to acquire a practical knowledge of the art, which we may well suppose, from his early desire to adopt a seafaring life, he eagerly embraced.
