  • Summary

  • Living in a time when politics, history, and writing were considered men’s fields and work, Mercy Otis Warren crossed gender boundaries to insert herself into the fray of each. Her name has been somewhat forgotten over time. But Thomas Jefferson said she had a “high station in the ranks of genius.” John Adams called her “the most accomplished lady in America.” And Alexander Hamilton claimed that, “in the career of dramatic compositions at least, female genius has outstripped the male.”
