Summary
"Ten years of research revealed a tight weave of great military leaders bound to each other through marriage. The Hunter women, noteworthy for their beauty, united names found in the military journals of their time: Major Samuel Appleton, in charge of all the forces on the Dedham Plain; Lt. Col. George Armistead, defender of Baltimore; Col. John Baylor of Newmarket, who was with Washington at Winchester. Any student of American history will enjoy learning about the other side of their hero -- their personal lives and fortunes, the journey that brought them into a position of prominence and power. Fully documented, this work gives the reader the background that drove their success and the home life that supported their careers." [from the publisher]
