Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Base Maps: Appomattox Manor, City Point, Petersburg National Battlefield, Virginia In the summer of I864 City Point assumed a new importance when General Ulysses S. Grant, general-ln-chief of the Army of the United States, arrived to establish his headquarters at Appomattox Manor. In the late spring and early summer of that year Grant had tried to crush Lt. General Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia in a series of battles beginning at the Wilderness and continuing through Cold Harbor Failing in his objective in those battles, Grant had decided to isolate the Confederate capital of Richmond by capturing the vital railroad center of Petersburg.6 When the Union Army did not capture Petersburg in mid-june, it settled in for what would become a ten-month siege. During that time City Point became a vital link in the line that supplied the more than I00,000 northern soldiers on the lines in front of Petersburg.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After more than three years of grim fighting, General Ulysses Grant had a plan to end the Civil War--laying siege to Petersburg, Virginia, thus cutting off supplies to the Confederate capital at Richmond. He established his headquarters at City Point on the James River, requiring thousands of troops, tons of supplies, as well as extensive medical facilities and staff. Nurses flooded the area, yet many did not work in medical capacities--they served as organizers, advocates and intelligence gatherers. Nursing emerged as a noble profession with multiple specialties. Drawing on a range of primary and secondary sources, this history covers the resilient women who opened the way for others into postwar medical, professional and political arenas.
