Presented here are excerpts from diaries and letters written by
Southern women from different walks of life, and areas of the
country. Mary White, a fifteen-year-old girl, attempted to get
through the blockade in Wilmington, North Carolina; Nancy Jones
lived in fear amid the violence that rocked Missouri and saw her
close friends and family murdered and her young son taken prisoner
by the Yankees; Sarah Dandridge Duval and her family were refugees
living near Richmond, Virginia. The book includes personal
reminiscences from Union and Confederate women living in
Winchester, Virginia, a town that reportedly changed hands 76 times
during the war, and the reactions of Southern women to the
surrender at Appomattox.
