""Dames and Daughters of the Young Republic"" is a historical non-fiction book written by Geraldine Brooks. The book explores the lives of women during the early years of America's founding, focusing on the period between 1776 and 1826. Brooks delves into the lives of notable women of the time, including Abigail Adams, Dolley Madison, and Mercy Otis Warren, and examines how they influenced the development of the new nation. The book also explores the experiences of ordinary women during this time period, including their roles in the home, their participation in the Revolutionary War, and their struggles for political and social rights.
