    In this meticulously researched biography of the first female historian of the American Revolution and our first woman playwright, Nancy Rubin Stuart depicts Mrs. Warren’s life and patriotic achievements.

John Adams, who was impressed with Mrs. Warren’s acumen and literary abilities, praised her “real genius” and encouraged her to write satirical plays, poems, and a history of the American Revolution. —Christine Kreiser, Managing Editor, American History Magazine “Playwright, poet, and historian, Mercy Otis Warren was both a witness to and chronicler of some of the most important events of the American Revolution. —Rosemarie Zagarri, George Mason University and author of A Woman’s Dilemma: Mercy Otis Warren and the American Revolution “‘History,’ John Adams told Mercy Otis Warren, ‘is not the province of the ladies.’ Those, as Adams learned quickly, were fighting words.
