| Summary | Annotation <p>The first reference work to draw together the stories and studies of women in the American Civil War, this annotated bibliography offers access to the literature that documents the history of women who experienced the war, changed it, and were changed by it. Offering nearly 800 entries, it lists both primary and secondary sources, classic and current works, and items in print and available on the Internet. Drawing together over one hundred years of writings, <i>Women in the American Civil War: An Annotated Bibliography</i> is an invaluable resource for readers and researchers interested in this neglected topic.</p><p></p><p>During the American Civil War women played a highly significant role, yet modern writers often overlook their experiences and contributions. <i>Women in the American Civil War: An Annotated Bibliography</i> is the first reference work to focus exclusively on women in the war. Sections list sources on such diverse topics as women as nurses and medical relief workers, women's changing economic roles, their lives as refugees, as spies and scouts, or in military camps. It also looks at the literature on the miscellaneous topics of women in public, wives of politicians and military commanders, family life, and women on the wrong side of the law.</p> |
