History has always celebrated our Founding Fathers. In an act of correction, we’re bringing Denise Kiernan to The NewSouth Bookstore for a talk about her new book, Obstinate Daughters: The Rebels, Writers, and Renegade Women Who Ignited the American Revolution. The work is a sweeping chronicle that challenges the traditional mythology of the nation's beginnings, championing the unsung women behind it. Kiernan is an award-winning author, journalist, and producer with three decades of storytelling experience, so you just know this is going to be a great event and her book a must to read. See you at the bookstore on Tuesday, August 11, 2026 at 5:30 p.m.
