<p>Lawrence Galloway managing editor of New York tabloid <em>The Daily It</em> was given the exclusive story of the experiments of Professor J. Hendricks Morgan whereby he had perfected a system which would resurrect the dead... provided he have access to the subject's skeleton and a cost of one million dollars. The test subject was decided by the readers of <em>The It</em> and after the bones of the First American were taken from Mount Vernon a young man calling himself Colonel Washington stepped from a glass case asking for General Braddock. How would the world of 1920s America react to the return of George Washington? <em>The Return of George Washington</em> was one of the main inspirations for the Doc Savage novel <em>Resurrection Day</em> written by Lester Dent himself a long-time <em>Argosy</em> reader and fan of fellow author George F.
