In her book, ?Revolutionary Mothers: Women in the Struggle for America?s Independence,? Carol Belkin describes in great detail the role of women during the war and the long term impact of their participation. Women not only actively helped to fight and serve as nurses and spies, they also kept the businesses and farms running so that when the war was over, they and their husbands and sons would be able to return to a normal life. They had to manage to survive severe shortages of household materials, food, and basic supplies. Spiraling inflation meant four months of a soldier?s wages could not even purchase a barrel of wheat. After the war, women for the most part returned to their roles as wives and mothers, under the rule of their spouse.
