This book tells the stories of fourteen women who played a role in the American Revolution. These women ranged in age from twelve to ninety-one, and all had different reasons for fighting for their country. Some were motivated by patriotism, others by anger at the British, and still others by a desire for independence. Despite their differences, all of these women shared one common trait- they were willing to weather the storm. Evans eloquently tells their stories, painting a vivid picture of life during the war years and the challenges these women faced. Weathering the Storm is an excellent resource for students interested in the American Revolution, and it is sure to inspire readers to continue the fight for freedom.; 372 pages.
