Washington's Farewell Address

By: George Washington

Narrated by: Glenn Hascall

George Washington played a role in so much of the early years of American culture. After 45 years of service in a variety of roles Washington left the office of president with cautions, wisdom, and gratitude. The original address was published in American newspapers as a means of ensuring the message would reach as many American people as possible. A very telling address from our first President. Narrated by Glenn Hascall.

Terrible performance, almost unlistenable.

Writings from this era are difficult for the modern reader to understand due to the natural evolution of a language over 200+ years, but the performer makes it far more difficult to understand. Such a monotonous and fast-paced reading makes this a total waste of money. I suggest finding a hard copy and reading it yourself.
