We know that Widow Hasbrouck opened her home to Washington in 1782, but the Hasbrouck family history itself has been distorted over the years by myths and legends. Much like the story of Washington chopping down the cherry tree, legend has it that the Hasbroucks and Washington would take a daily sojourn to the family orchards, where Jonathan Hasbrouck would first taste the general's fruit to ensure it was not poisoned. The truth is that Jonathan and Washington never met. In this revealing book, A.J. Schenkman finally dispels the rumors and relates the history of a prominent Newburgh family whose homestead ultimately became the nation's first publicly owned historic site in 1850.

At this time of writing, The Audiobook Washington's Headquarters in Newburgh: Home to a Revolution (Landmarks) has garnered 9 customer reviews with rating of 5 out of 5 stars. Not a bad score at all as if you round it off, it’s actually a perfect TEN already. From the looks of that rating, we can say the Audiobook is Good TO READ!

I purchased this little book on the possibility that it might contain information of the functioning of Washington's Headquarters and the use of his Lifeguard while in Newburgh, New York in 1782. However, the book is really the story of Colonel Jonathan Hasbrouck, the owner of the house used by Washington, and the house itself over the years. As such it contained almost nothing of use to me. However, the book is interesting in that it casts light on a well-to-do patriot family from the French and Indian War to when the house passed out of the family's possession in 1850. If the reader has an opportunity to visit this historical site, this book would be a handy reference. However, it contains nothing of great historical importance, and can easily be read in an evening. The writing is clear and concise, but the coverage of the time during the Revolutionary War, 1775-1783, takes up only 25 pages.
