Women in the American Revolution, 1763-1783 is an unusual
re-telling of the Revolution and the War, campaign by campaign,
battle by battle, in both the North and the South. It is unique in
that if focuses on the multitude of women who sacrificed in the
fight for independence. Without the support of women, American
victory simply would not have happened. So this version of the
American Revolution remembers the ladies. It shows the backbone
role of wives, mothers, sisters and daughters in their rightful
place, serving beside soldiers, husbands, brothers and sons-as
equals. Whether recording history, or rocking the cradle, or doing
men's work of plowing, farming and defending the home; whether
working shoulder to shoulder in battle, engaging in the dangerous
job of shooting the cannon, or the hazardous field of nursing
soldiers with contagious diseases, these revolutionary women inject
sugar, spice and grit into every phase of the fight. On these
pages, in the middle of events, just when it is least expected,
their stubborn patriotism, humor, humanity and tears sparkle
through.
