Contents:
A detailed book of the
crucial contributions
women, both Confederate
?
and Union, who served in hospitals, camps, and the fields of the Civil war as
spies, nurses, soldiers,
and more. Many women smuggled medical supplies under their dresses, as medical supplies were very limited and were subsequently confiscated if caught by the other side. Chapters also include: the bloody flag of
Fort Pillow
, what we did at
Gettysburg

for understanding  --
and remember -
this book is very old and
may have accumulated bad smells along the way [musty basement/ mildew/ smoke]
- I have found that
dryer sheets in them for a few months makes a world of difference!
some of my books get sold right away so
please consider using this trick before deciding to return it!
My nose doesn't work like it use to
so the old book smell doesn't bother me.
As far as I can tell -this book has no bad smells.
