Pamela Bauer Mueller
Lady Unveiled, the newest of Mueller s four award-winning historical novels, tells the compelling story of Catharine Kitty Littlefield Greene, who counted Revolutionary War heroes Patrick Henry, the Marquis de Lafayette and Commander-in-Chief George Washington as close friends. Kitty was the wife of courageous patriot and brilliant general Nathanael Greene, and is even credited with being a co-inventor of the cotton gin. Learn how this petite, dark-haired woman a vivacious flirt who could also be brutally honest became a key player in the tumultuous struggle for independence.
Kitty Littlefield was born in Rhode Island and made her way south during the course of her eventful life. What she may have lacked in the domestic arts, she made up for in charm, strength and determination, blossoming from a joyous, frolicsome creature into the intelligent and captivating Lady Greene, who conversed in French with Lafayette, became a trusted confidante of Martha Washington, and managed a rice plantation as skillfully as her sewing circle.
After Independence, Kitty and her husband established a plantation home near the Savannah River and later on Cumberland Island Georgia s southernmost barrier island all while raising five wonderful children. In the process, Kitty Littlefield Greene made her way into the pages of American history. Mueller skillfully takes readers along on her memorable journey.
