Founding Mothers: Remembering the Ladies by Cokie Roberts
George Washington. Benjamin Franklin. John Adams. James Madison. When one hears those names, they immediately think "Fathers of Our Country." Those men left their mark on history, but what of their wives? The familiar saying goes "Behind every great man, is a woman," and this book tells of the women behind the Founding Fathers. Martha Washington, Deborah Read Franklin, Abigail Adams, and Dolly Madison, and others, this is their story. What a fascinating set of women!
