"A stunning achievement. A great read " -Mary Webb, author of "The God Hustlers"

These historical novellas by author Adrienne Wolfert recreate the lives of three American women who, spurred by their own humanity and courage, go beyond their traditional roles to change history.

"The End of March-"In 1965, Congress introduces the Voting Rights Act. Ten thousand people show their support by joining the Civil Rights march behind Martin Luther King. Willi Carotti leaves her family to volunteer as a transport driver on the march, but as a result, her marriage splits into two very separate journeys.

"The Beautiful Wife-"Hailed as "La Belle Americaine," Elizabeth Monroe arrives in Paris with her husband, James, the American ambassador to France. But Elizabeth quickly learns about the horror of the French Revolution when her friend, Adrienne Lafayette, is scheduled to be guillotined.

"The Queen of America-"- "But where is he, what is he doing, who is he away from me?" Martha Washington embarks on a dangerous journey.
