| In 1784, five years before he became
president of the United States, George Washington, 52, was nearly toothless. So
he hired a dentist to transplant nine teeth into his jaw-having extracted them
from the months of his slaves. That’s far different image from the cherry-tree-chopping George most people remember from their history books. But recently, many historians have begun to focus on the roles slavery played in the lives of the founding generation. They have been spurred in part by DNA evidence made available in 1998, which almost certainly proved Thomas Jefferson had fathered at least one child with his slave Sally Hemings. And only over the past 30 years have scholars examined history from the bottom up. Works of several historians reveal the moral compromises made by the nation’s early leaders and the fragile nature of the country’s infancy. More A. show the primitive medical practice in the past.
