Daughters of the Revolution and Their Times by Charles Carleton Coffin
QR code
"Daughters of the Revolution and Their Times" by Charles Carleton Coffin is a historical romance written in the late 19th century. The book explores the lesser-known contributions of women during the American Revolutionary War era, focusing on how the mothers and daughters of the time influenced the struggle for independence. Through a blend of factual history and imaginative narrative, it aims to illuminate the spirit and actions of these women amidst the
backdrop of pivotal historical events. The opening of the narrative introduces Robert Walden, a young man from Rumford, New Hampshire, as he prepares to take cheeses to market in Boston. This journey not only illustrates the daily life and responsibilities of a colonial farmer's son but also sets the stage for his encounters with significant figures like Samuel Adams and Doctor Joseph Warren, who are engaged in the revolutionary cause. Through his experiences, including witnessing the insubordination of British soldiers, Robert becomes increasingly immersed in the political tensions of the time. The narrative hints at deeper themes of social change, loyalty, and the sacrifices made by both men and women during the buildup to the Revolution. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
