New enough, long enough, neutrally written, adequately referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. QPQ done. I think the first hook is more catchy, but the long book title distracts from it. How about writing it this way:- ALT2: ... that while researching his award-winning book on US President George Washington, Logan Beirne found letters written by Washington in his own ancestors' house?

Since nominator has not edited since May 1, and we need more bio hooks to fill prep sets, I will be bold and go ahead and approve this. I just took out the book title and flipped around the hook, not adding any extra new information. ALT2 hook ref verified and cited inline. ALT2 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 18:33, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
