The blog post title is a quote of Lady Washington - brought to us, of course wrapped in a great story - in Cokie Roberts's book about women from our history - we women have much to learn from those women.

Cokie is a journalist on NPR as a radio voice, she's authored several books and now - she's here (well, linked here anyway). Thank you Pamela for introducing me to Cokie's book Founding Mothers: Women of the American Revolution. I have researched it, I have read reviews on it, I have now heard and seen interviews about it, and now ...
I am the newest fan of this book.
Below is a short radio interview with Cokie about the book -- and then on below, is a video interview about the book (a bit longer - well worth your time believe me).
Listen here.
"Let's Hear it for the Founding Mothers!"

Blocked by the firewall -- dangitall! I'll come check later.
Hasn't Cokie Roberts been reporting government issues for many years? I've seen her here and there, and it sounds like her book is one born of her passion. Always a great way to pen a story!
That's awesome! I'll have to check out her book.
I had not heard of this book yet but have to add it to my wish list. I've read a couple of books about Lady Washington and she intrigues me, just as the early history of our country does.
you just don't look at history the same way after reading ...
