The answer to the question is b. False.

George Washington was not the principal author of the Declaration of Independence as it was written by a committee composed of five members, Roger Sherman, Benjamin Franklin, Robert Livingston and Thomas Jefferson who was given the task to write a draft regarding the Declaration of Independence.
