A landmark in historical scholarship, The Papers of George Washington Digital Edition encompasses five separate series and the complete diaries. This digital edition offers the complete Papers released through 2007 in one online publication. You may search on full text and by date, author, or recipient across all volumes and series.

Please note: this beta version of PGWDE as integrated into our new American Founding Era platform lacks some of the features of our original standalone PGWDE (notably, the index). The latter will be the authoritative version until work on the Founders platform is complete. Each document in this Founding Era version contains a link to the document in the standalone version.
