Book Description
Sallie Ann Brock (Putman) writes from her first hand familiarities with life in Richmond, the capital of the Confederacy - from the initial days of "secession fever," to the glorious early months of victories - on through the terrible privations of the war years, the bread riots, and countless other adversities. She concludes with sketches of the death throes of the Confederate States of America, as experienced in Richmond, Virginia. However, Richmond is not the only scene with which Miss Brock is familiar. This educated and well-read woman kept up with other theaters of the war as well and gives accounts of the battles of Gettysburg, Antietam, Vicksburg, and other important battles with the alacrity of a seasoned newspaper reporter. Extensive supplementary work has been done on this out-of- print book (without taking any part from the original) such as added photographs and illustrations, translations of foreign words and phrases, explanations of archaic words and terms, and clarifying notes to make for a more enjoyable experience for the contemporary reader. The editor is a former teacher of American history.
