Join us in-person in the library or online as Fireside Chats host Paul Sparrow converses with Stephanie Dray and Laura Kamoie, co-authors of A Founding Mother: A Novel of Abigail Adams. This stunning historical novel is a sweeping, intimate portrayal of Abigail Adams—wife of one president and mother to another—whose wit, willpower, and wisdom helped shape the fledgling republic. From war-torn streets to the chandeliered halls of power, A Founding Mother is the unforgettable story of a woman ahead of her time—one whose voice, vision, and valor still resonate powerfully today. The Fireside Chat series is organized and moderated by Paul Sparrow, a writer, historical consultant, and the former Director of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum.
