Introduction: Nursing Mothers and Sanctified Sisters: Women's Political Behavior after the Restoration -- 1. Nursing Mothers: Dissenting Women and Opposition Politics -- 2. A Dangerous Woman: Mary Speke, her Family and the Puritan Gentry -- 3. Sanctified Sisters: Aphra Behn and the Culture of Nonconformity -- 4. An Incomparable Queen: Mary II, the Protestant International, and the Church of England -- 5. Devoted Daughters of the Church: Elizabeth Burnet and Mary Astell -- Conclusion: Stuart Women and Political Culture -- Appendix A: Poems on the Death of Queen Mary -- Appendix B: Sermons on the Death of Queen Mary -- Appendix C: Elizabeth Burnet's Recommended Reading List.

This book is the study of how women writers, booksellers, spies, rebels, outlaws, poets, widows, wives, mothers, gentlewomen, shopkeepers, and one queen - all of whom were spiritually inspired - made a difference in the political events of the eras of Restoration and Revolution in Britain. It speaks to both Dissenting women at the margins of society and Anglican women at the centre, demonstrating that what mattered to women in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth century, and what propelled them into the political sphere, were issues of liberty of conscience and the survival of Protestantism at home and abroad in the face of an encroaching Counter-Reformation Catholicism at the Stuart court and in Europe.
