Note Print version record.
Summary Women of the Constitution follows in the footsteps of the 1912 work devoted to biographical sketches of the spouses of the signers of the Declaration of Independence (later reprinted in 1997 by WallBuilders as The Wives of the Signers). Women of the Constitution will be the first work devoted exclusively to providing brief biographies of the 43 wives of the signers of the U.S. Constitution on September 17, 1787.
