They spun, they wrote, they boycotted, they disguised, they spied, they fought.

The American Revolution was not just won on the battlefields by men with muskets. Behind the scenes, a powerful force fueled the flames of rebellion the Daughters of Liberty. This is their untold story.

• Abigail Adams, the fiery political mind whose letters challenged the Founding Fathers and laid the groundwork for women's rights.
• Mercy Otis Warren, the satirical playwright whose words exposed British hypocrisy and inspired a nation to action.
• Sarah Bradlee Fulton, the community leader who turned spinning bees into acts of economic defiance and shaped the homefront war effort.
• Deborah Sampson, the woman who disguised herself as a man to fight for her country, proving that courage knows no gender.
• Agent 355, the enigmatic spy whose intelligence network helped turn the tide of war.
• Nancy Hart, the frontierswoman who single-handedly captured a band of British soldiers, defying expectations and embodying the spirit of resistance.
• Nonhelema, the Shawnee leader who navigated the treacherous landscape of colonial politics, advocating for her people's sovereignty amidst the chaos.
