Non-Fiction Biography
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Cokie
Roberts comes New York Times bestseller Founding
Mothers, an intimate and illuminating look at the fervently
patriotic and passionate women whose tireless pursuits on
behalf of their families–and their country–proved just as
crucial to the forging of a new nation as the rebellion that
established it. While much has been written about the
men who signed the Declaration of Independence, battled the
British, and framed the Constitution, the wives, mothers,
sisters and daughters they left behind have been little
noticed by history. #1 New York Times bestselling
author Cokie Roberts brings us women who fought the
Revolution as valiantly as the men, often defending their
very doorsteps. Drawing upon personal correspondence,
private journals, and even favoured recipes, Roberts reveals
the often surprising stories of these fascinating women,
bringing to life the everyday trials and extraordinary
triumphs of individuals like Abigail Adams, Mercy Otis
Warren, Deborah Read Franklin, Eliza Pinckney, Catherine
Littlefield Green, Esther DeBerdt Reed and Martha
Washington–proving that without our exemplary women, the new
country might have never survived.
