Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a hidden treasure of American Civil War history. If you buy it only for the section titled "A Confederate Girl's Diary," you'll find it worth the price of admission.Yet the collection is so much richer than that. Included are excerpts from the famous diary of Mary Chesnut, close friend of Mrs. Jefferson Davis and much quoted in Ken Burns' great Civil War documentary.The first sections of the book include fascinating details about services women gave to the southern war effort:"A jar of pickles, a contribution of $.50 cents, shirts, wine, and $5.00 from a Jew, who desired me so to acknowledge."The latter half of the book is composed of short memoirs, "A Confederate Girl s Diary" being one of the most entertaining. While the girl is dismissive of all the talk that Sherman will soon be upon them, she continues taking vocal lessons and finishes a new book..."Les Miserables.""A Southern Household During the Years 1860 to 1865" tells what it was like to run a household during war.Coming from the Daughters of the Confederacy, it should not be surprising that this work is by largely unreconstructed Rebel women, but it is fascinating and an important contribution to Civil War literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long out of print, this volume of recollections, stories, and verse provides a glimpse of women's lives on the home front-and sometimes in the thick of battle-during the War between the States. Nearly fifty years after the American Civil War, Lucy Worth London Anderson (Mrs. John Huske Anderson) of Fayetteville, N.C., compiled one of the first memorial collections honoring the contributions of women to the cause. Her book North Carolina Women of the Confederacy assembled biographies, anecdotes, letters, reminiscences, and poems concerning Southern women's experience during the war. This early historical text is once again available in a new edition featuring a clean and corrected setting of the type, historical introduction and annotations, and a valuable index of personal and place names. Scholars, geneaologists, and casual readers alike will appreciate the reintroduction of this Southern classic, prepared under the auspices of the UDC Cape Fear Chapter #3. Lucy London Anderson served as North Carolina historian of the United Daughters of the Confederacy in the 1920s. She first published this record of episodes in the history of the Confederate women of her state in 1926.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Gardner's reading of a wide range of published and unpublished texts recovers a multifaceted vision of the South. For example, during the war, while its outcome was not yet a foregone conclusion, women's writings sometimes reflected loyalty and optimism; at other times, they revealed doubts and a wavering resolve. According to Gardner, it was only in the aftermath of defeat that a more unified vision of the southern cause emerged. By the beginning of the twentieth century, however, white women - who remained deeply loyal to their southern roots - were raising fundamental questions about the meaning of southern womanhood in the modern era."--BOOK JACKET.
