When Governor Robert Dinwiddie appointed George Washington to the post of Adjutant General of Virginia in 1753, the twenty-one year old militia major eagerly anticipated a great adventure. What he got were hardship, responsibility and frustration as the British emissary to the French legions then occupying the Ohio Valley. The Neophyte Warrior series chronicles the adventures, romances and growing pains of a young Virginia militiaman named George Washington during the French and Indian War.
