Delve into the varied experiences of New Jersey women during the era of the American Revolution with historian Lucia McMahon. For many women, the home front and battlefields remained inextricably connected. Leading up to the war, women provided essential support for patriotic protests. During the Revolution, some family homes were temporarily repurposed into military headquarters, disrupting familiar spaces and routines. New Jersey women were often directly “at the crossroads” of the war, in close proximity to troop movements, encampments, and combat.
