About this listen

 In this engaging excerpt from the preface, we explore the remarkable contributions of women during the American Revolution. Their passionate dedication was evident in countless acts of generosity and sacrifice. Many opened their homes to gather donations for the troops, while others showcased their artistic talents by embroidering colors with a promise of loyalty. They provided essential arms and ammunition, driven by a spirit of selflessness. Furthermore, they banded together to boycott imported luxuries, committing themselves to carding, spinning, and weaving their own clothing for the cause.
