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 -

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 =

Laminated Softcover - 214pp - Photos - Biblio - Index - When the Civil War broke out, women
answered the call for help. They broke away from their traditional roles and served in many
capacities, some of them even going so far as to disguise themselves as men and enlist in the
army. Estimates of such women enlistees range from 400 to 700. About 60 women soldiers were
known to have been killed or wounded. More than sixty women who fought or who served the
Union or Confederacy in other ways are featured. Among them are Sarah Thompson, the Union
spy and nurse who brought down the famous raider John Hunt Morgan; Elizabeth Van Lew, the
Union spy instrumental in the largest prison break of the war; Sarah Malinda Blalock, who
fought for the Confederacy as a soldier and then for the Union as a guerrilla raider; Dr. Mary
Walker, a doctor for the Union and the only woman to receive the Congressional Medal of Honor
for Civil War service; and Jennie Hodgers, the longest serving woman soldier (and the only
woman to receive a soldier's pension) - Publisher's List Price =

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 -

- In July 1864, Union General William T. Sherman ordered the arrest and deportation of over 400
women and children from the villages of Roswell and New Manchester, Georgia. Branded
traitors for their work in the cotton mills which supplied much needed material to the
Confederacy, these civilians were shipped to cities in the North (already crowded with refugees)
and left to fend for themselves. This work details the little known story of the hardships these
women and children endured before and most especially after they were forcibly taken from
their homes. Beginning with the founding of Roswell, it examines the prevalent atmosphere in
the area and the pre-war circumstances that created this class of women. The main focus,
however, is what befell the women at the hands of Sherman's army and what they faced once
they reached Northern states such as Illinois and Indiana. An appendix details the roll of political
prisoners from Sweetwater (New Manchester). - Publisher's List Price =
