Book Synopsis
A lively and accessibly written volume, this book highlights some of the women whom Washington knew. Women who admired and memorialized him, women who provided him love and solace, women who frustrated him, and women who worked for or against him - all of these women are chronicled through their own experiences and identities.

Trade Review
This stunning collection of essays is a valuable study of George Washington and the women who inhabited his world. Based on the best work of contemporary historians and sound archival research, the book is also engagingly written. A substantial contribution to the field."- Barbara Oberg, Princeton University, author of Women in the American Revolution: Gender, Politics, and the Domestic World
