| Summary, etc.: | The Mother of the Father tells the story of one of the most controversial, unconventional and complicated women in American history and how she handled the contentious relationship with the firstborn son who would become the nation's most revered Founding Father. Mary Washington has been portrayed as everything from Mother Theresa to 'Mommy Dearest.' The truth is somewhere in-between. Craig Shirley uncovers startling details about the inner workings of the Washington family. He vividly brings to life a strong, resilient widow who raised six children and ran a large farm on her own at a time when women's duties were relegated to household matters. |
