Bestselling co-author of "America's First Daughter" and "My Dear Hamilton," Laura Kamoie shares a sweeping, intimate portrayal of Abigail Adams--wife of one president and mother to another--whose wit, willpower, and wisdom helped shape the fledgling republic. Unafraid to speak her mind, Abigail Adams famously offered fearless political counsel, urging her husband President John Adams to “remember the ladies” in the new government. Through it all, she became his most trusted confidante and indispensable ally. From war-torn streets to the chandeliered halls of power, "A Founding Mother" is the unforgettable story of a woman ahead of her time—one whose voice, vision, and valor still resonate powerfully today.
An America 250 Celebration Event presented in partnership with the Westfall Politics & History Series and the Missouri Historical Society.
