Bond, Priscilla - A MARYLAND BRIDE IN THE DEEP SOUTH : THE CIVIL WAR DIARY OF PRISCILLA BOND - LSU Press - ISBN# 0807131431 -BRAND NEW Hardcover with a Dust Jacket (Protected in a New Brodart Dust Jacket Cover) - 384pp - Biblio - Index - Edited by Kimberly Harrison - A young newlywed from Baltimore endures the "strange land" of south Louisiana "They say I'm a Yankee but if wanting peace is Yankee then I am one. I am tired of Disunion of husband & wife." In 1858, nineteen-year-old Priscilla "Mittie" Munnikhuysen began a new diary that saw her marry, leave her family in the genteel Protestant seaboard culture of Chesapeake Bay, and take up residence with her wealthy husband, Howard Bond, in the frontier plantation society of Catholic south Louisiana. By 1865, Priscilla Bond had witnessed trials and disillusionments enough to fill a two-volume journal: her father-in-law's brutality toward his slaves; her husband's alleged ambush of Union soldiers and subsequent flight from home; the retaliatory burning of the family's sugar plantation in Houma; and the losses, horrors, and daily depredations of war. Published here for the first time, with extensive notes and a critical introduction by Kimberly Harrison, Bond's intimate writings illuminate the Civil War's impact on women, families, and individual identities. Occasionally Bond records her experiences for the benefit of later readers, but more often she uses her diary to carve a space and time for self-reflection, self-instruction, and self-persuasion. Nineteenth-century women's lives were defined by their relation to others as wife, mother, daughter, and sister and keeping a diary allowed Bond to claim time for herself. It served as a rhetorical tool that helped motivate her to conform to contemporary standards of "true womanhood," adapt to a harsh new environment, and survive the collapse of a civilization - Publisher's List Price = $45 - Our Price - $34.95

Calcutt, Rebecca Barbour - RICHMOND'S WARTIME HOSPITALS - Pelican Publishing - ISBN# 1589802977 - BRAND NEW Hardcover in Dust Jacket - 224pp - Notes - Biblio - Index - Photos - Doctors attempting to deal with the carnage wrought by the Civil War faced more difficult challenges than the sheer number of the wounded. Fought at the very end of what is known as "the medical Middle Ages," the Civil War predated modern knowledge of bacteria and antiseptics. Doctors, who were then deemed fully trained after only a two-year course of study, had few diagnostic tools beyond their own reckoning at hand.While medical science enjoyed several advances during the Civil War, the doctors and hospitals in the Southern states faced overwhelming casualties with few supplies and inadequate personnel. By focusing on facilities in Virginia's capitol, Mrs. Calcutt illustrates how exhausted resources rapidly defeated southern doctors' heroic efforts. Richmond's Wartime Hospitals covers the more than fifty hospitals located in Richmond during the Civil War period, including each facility's location, dates of operation, and surgeon in charge. Where archival information is available, Mrs. Calcutt includes detailed descriptions of the buildings, first-person accounts of day-to-day operations, and other historical anecdotes - Publisher's List Price = $22 - Our Price - $19.95

NEW Hardcover in Dust Jacket (Protected in a New Brodart Cover) - 397pp - Index - Notes -
Biblio - Photos - the most complete portrait yet available of these courageous women - including
Sarah Bradbury, Lizzie Compton, Frances Hook, and Confederate spy Loreta Janeta
Velazquez many of whom earned the praise of the male soldiers they served with and rose
through the ranks to become sergeants, even officers. Through his investigation of specific case
histories, he has authenticated many previously undocumented reports while debunking myths
and exposing previously published errors about the subject. The book also includes a
biographical directory of nearly 400 women participants and dozens of Civil War documents
attesting to women's role in the war. As a new synthesis and critical appraisal, Women on the
Civil War Battlefront is a richly anecdotal work that unearths a hidden history and opens a new
window on women's lives in the nineteenth century. These women were determined to serve, and
Hall's research confirms that they did so in significant numbers and with distinction. - Publisher's List Price = $34.95 - Our Price -
