The Mother of Washington and Her Times is a historical biography written by Sara Agnes Rice Pryor. The book tells the story of Mary Ball Washington, the mother of George Washington, and her life in colonial Virginia during the 18th century. The author provides a detailed account of Mary's upbringing, her marriage to Augustine Washington, and her role as a mother to her five children, including George. Throughout the book, readers are given a glimpse into the social and political climate of colonial Virginia, including the impact of slavery and the growing tensions between the American colonies and Great Britain. The author also explores Mary's relationships with other prominent figures of the time, such as George Mason and Robert Carter III. The Mother of Washington and Her Times is a well-researched and engaging biography that sheds light on the life of an often-overlooked historical figure. It offers a unique perspective on the early years of the United States and the people who helped shape its history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
