Women in the American Revolution / Therese Shea.

Shea, Therese, (author.).

Summary:

"All too often, women's roles in the American Revolution is briefly mentioned or, often, just left out entirely. The omission is a great disservice to students of history. This valuable volume aids readers in understanding the significant part that women played in the fighting of the war and in the founding of the new country. Through carefully researched, accessible text, they'll learn about groups of women and individuals who supported colonial independence, proving themselves invaluable in the war effort. Sidebars, fact boxes, and historical images add more memorable information about this crucial curricular topic"-- Provided by publisher.
