Dearest Friend: A Life of Abigail Adams
"As lively, sensible, and forthright as the woman about whom it is written. . . . Illuminating." (The Boston Globe)"Dearest Friend-- the Adamses' term for each other -- is most powerfully the history of a marriage, an "Eleanor and Franklin" for the 18th century with one important difference: Their marriage worked." (Pauline MaierThe New York Times Book Review)"Withey has not only brought Abigail to life, she has also added new depth and richness to our understanding of the intricate history of feminist thought." (Kirkus Reviews)
