This volume gathers more than one hundred letters-most of them previously unpublished-written by Mercy Otis Warren (1728-1814).

This work is distinguished by its firsthand perspective and critical examination of political events, drawing from her connections with prominent revolutionary figures.

This work (in the first new edition since 1805) is an exciting and comprehensive study of the events of the American Revolution, from the Stamp Act Crisis of 1765 through the ratification of the Constitution in 1788-1789.

The letters concern the production and sale of the book; the account leaf records the sales of Warren's History.

Mercy Otis Warren's "The Group" stands as a significant literary contribution to early American literature, embodying the spirit of revolutionary thought while cleverly critiquing the political landscape of her time.

All Mercy Otis Warren's work was published anonymously until 1790. She wrote several plays, including the satiric The Adulateur: A Tragedy, as it is Now Acted in Upper Servia (1772).

The book not only showcases Warren's adeptness at crafting compelling narratives but also reflects the rising trend of female empowerment during the early 19th century, set against the backdrop of burgeoning American republican ideologies.
