Biography of Mercy Otis Warren, an important political satirist who "played a vital part in the behind-the-scenes intrigues of New England revolutionary politics ..." -- dust jacket.
Mercy Otis Warren (1728-1814) was a gifted playwright, poet, and historian, as well as a revolutionary woman who symbolized and promoted the ideas and principles upon which the United States was established during the American Revolution. Warren was important to the ideological development of the Patriot movement in the era of the American Revolution as well as to the documentation of the nation’s early history. Her most seminal work, History of the Rise, Progress and Termination of the American Revolution, a three-volume set that she published in 1805 at the age of seventy-seven, was one of the first comprehensive histories of the American Revolution.
