Summary
Women of the Republic views the American Revolution through women's eyes. The result of a seven-year search for women's diaries, letters, and legal records, Kerber describes women's participation in the war, evaluates changes in their education in the late eighteenth century, describes the novels and histories women read and wrote, and analyzes their status in law and society.
