Martha Washington Won The War

Season 1, Episode 1 of 13

We all know Martha Washington from her portraits as a dowdy grandmother, but did you know that there is new evidence she was a beautiful and passionate wife befitting her handsome George? And that Martha was the secret weapon that kept troop morale high during the hard winter's encampment at Valley Forge? We prepare Martha's authentic Turkey Stew with Oysters and speak with well-known Martha Washington expert Patricia Brady.
