A review by aelane23
Founding Mothers by Cokie Roberts

2.0

At first I really enjoyed Roberts' more casual approach to historical biography...she frequently places "reactions" like "Yeah, right" or "I'll bet" or "Go Abigail!" to various letters and quotes that she has shared. However, as it went on, it felt all over the place. I appreciated that she tried to organize the chapters and subsequent stories chronologically, but I think it would have flowed better if she had focused on one "founding mother" at a time. Overall, it had interesting things I didn't know about that era, but will not be coming back to it.
