In time for the 250th Anniversary of the birth of the United States comes 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. A stunning historical novel with modern-day implications from the New York Times bestselling authors of America’s First Daughter and My Dear Hamilton.
“The research shines, the prose gleams, the characterization is a delight, and the themes are timelier than ever—on the eve of our nation’s 250th anniversary, I can think of no book more necessary than A Founding Mother.”
—KATE QUINN, New York Times bestselling author of The Briar Club
