Women of Colonial America (We the People (Compass Point Books Paperback))

Women from England were recruited to help develop the New World. They raised food for their families, made their own cloth, and educated their children. They endured incredibly harsh times in order to establish what would become one of the greatest nations in the world - the United States of America. As long as they did their chores and obeyed their husbands, they were respected in the colonies. But some women didnt always follow the rules.
