Glory, Passion, and Principle: The Story of Eight… por Melissa Lukeman Bohrer
I was slightly disappointed with this book. I was expecting something a little more scholarly. I don't particularly care for history books that write in a narrative style; it makes too many assumptions about what is going on in the heads of the individuals. Not all of the book is written in narrative, and the more historical parts are adequate.

In any case, it did whet my appetite to learn more about people such as Nancy Ward and Phyllis Wheatley.… (más)
A very well-written, researched book about eight women important to the American Revolution: Nancy Ward, Deborah Sampson, Mercy Otis Warren, Molly Pitcher, Sybil Ludington, Phillis Wheatley, Abigail Adams, and Lydia Darragh.
