The real story of the American "Shero," Mary Patton, and her famed gunpowder production can finally be heard in her voice via this creative non-fiction work. Scientific, forestry and geologic research reveal the hidden truth untold for hundreds of years. Her famed gunpowder helped win the battles of King's Mountain, Cowpens and Guilford Courthouse. Sold across the entire Southeast, the legend comes to an all new light. Six, full-color, first-ever paintings of Mary and her friends are enclosed making United States history. You will listen to her speak in her true voice of love, intimacy, her children, her friends of the Taylor's, and many Colonels like Hambright, Hampton, Cleaveland, Sevier, and more, like Private Ishmael Titus, Captain Redhead and Sally New River of the Catawba Indian Nation. An MA-rated book that contains vulgarities invented hundreds of years ago, hangings that were held, and the fire with filth of the real war. Outlander and GOT fan approved.
