Title
A Virginia Girl in the Civil War, 1861-1865: Being a Record of the Actual Experiences of the Wife of a Confederate Officer
Description
“1861-1865. The reminiscences of a young woman, unidentified, ‘in her own words.’ A Virginia girl and the ‘Romance of War’ - Harold Straubig’s Civil War eyewitness.”
This work is a retelling of stories once shared over tea cups, including what life meant to a young American woman during a vital and formative period of American history. While a true Virginian, the lady also speaks well of her experiences with Union soldiers and officers. Real names of the subjects were changed in deference to the wishes of living persons at the time.
