In this episode 297, we visit with Martin Mongiello, author of “Terrorist Psychotic: Mary Patton.”
This is the story of American “Shero,” Mary Patton, and her famed gunpowder production that the author says helped win the Revolutionary War battles of King’s Mountain, Cowpens, and Guilford Courthouse. The book includes six, full-color, paintings of Mary and her friends and explores her relationships with Colonels, Privates, Captains, and Sally New River of the Catawba Indian Nation, among others. It is one rebel’s story.
Doctor Dean Ornish, author of seven bestselling books, says: “At last, women of the American Revolution receive the credit they deserve. Highly recommended!”
