In Founding Mothers: Remembering the Ladies, Cokie Roberts introduced readers to the women behind the scenes of the American Revolution. Now, in Ladies of Liberty, Cokie continues to shed light on the remarkable women of our country’s history, those who laid the groundwork for our nation to grow and flourish.
Covering the period of 1776 to 1824, Ladies of Liberty: The Women Who Shaped Our Nation—based on her adult title of the same name—pays homage to a diverse group of ten new remarkable women educators, reformers, and explorers who shaped the United States. Drawing on personal correspondence and private journals, Cokie Roberts brings to life the extraordinary accomplishments of these inspiring and dynamic women who created the framework for our current society and gives much-deserved recognition to this generation of heroines, reformers, and visionaries.
Roberts features a cast of courageous women that includes African American poet Lucy Terry Prince, Judith Sargent Murray, Isabella Graham, Sacagawea, Martha Jefferson Randolph, Elizabeth Bayley Seton, Louise D’Avezac Livingston, Rebecca Gratz, Elizabeth Kortright Monroe, and Louisa Catherine Adams.
