Martha Washington to Mercy Otis Warren, 26 December 1789 In which Martha Washington hits a very low point in her life, but tries to hide that fact from Mercy Otis Warren, a poet. historian, and satirist of Early America. I am joined by friend of the podcast Alexis Coe, the New York Times Bestselling Author of "You Never Forget Your First: A Biography of George of Washington," now out in paperback, and "Alice+Freda Forever: A Murder in Memphis," soon to be a major motion picture. MORE INFORMATION: The text of this letter will be published VERY soon in the collection of Martha Washington's Papers that Kathryn is working on.
