During the Revolutionary War, George Washington wrote several letters to Patrick Henry, who was then the governor of Virginia. What was the purpose of this set of letters?

Founding framer and gifted political orator, Patrick Henry was one of the bright lights of the United States' revolutionary generation. Henry was at the forefront of colonial agitation over British policy beginning with his fiery protests against the Stamp Act of 1765. He later served as Governor of Virginia and as a member of the First Continental Congress. Henry is probably best known for his famous declaration, "give me liberty or give me death," made during a speech before the Virginia Convention in 1775.
