Product Details

One of the lesser known facts of the Civil War is that a large number of women participated either directly or indirectly in a large number of roles - heroines who acted as nurses, spies, supply stations, way stations of hope for sick soldiers and much more.

This collection of books on CD - 6 books spanning 1,000s of pages - details the lives of many brave women of the Civil war and makes for fascinating reading.
