For those of you who wonder what the women were during during the American revolution, this book provides many stories and insights. It shows the importance, bravery, and patriotism of women and how much responsibility they shouldered while their husbands were at war or involved in congressional activities. It broaden my perspective of the revolutionary period and told the human side of the struggle. I enjoyed it immensely. Additionally, the book is read by the author, Cokie Roberts. Her familiar, distinctive and clear voice enhanced the pleaure of listening to the book.
