I think I get more out of it than most because I have dozens of books about Washington on my shelves and know all about his life there. So when I go to his place, I can mentally picture all the famous historical figures who visited him there as well as him riding around the grounds on his horse and inspecting all his crops, distilleries, etc.
The Christmas episode of Steve Bannon's War Room had Patrick O'Donnell on; his "Washington's Immortals" sounds very good.
