Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by Judith McGuire, originally intended only for members of the family who were too young to remember these days, was first published in 1867. This noble southern lady recorded day-to-day happenings as she wandered across Virginia. Concerned that in future histories her grandchildren would be told that their ancestors were "tyrants to their servants," and "traitors to their country," she recorded in her diary more than enough proof of the truth.The late celebrated and Rev. Stuart Robinson wrote of it in a Louisville paper: "This has proved to us a most fascinating volume. It is the diary of a lady, evidently a thoughtful, refined, eminently Christian matron, kept for the benefit of her grandchildren, from May, 1861, when she was obliged to leave her home by the advent of Federal troops to Alexandria, Va., on through all the days of her sojourn at Winchester, Richmond, and elsewhere in Virginia, till the surrender of Generals Lee and Johnston, in April, 1865. . . . The reading of a dozen pages of this Diary make it sufficiently manifest that this gallery of 'inside views' of the Southern public opinion and the Southern heart during the memorable era of the civil war, are pictures taken from nature, and that, too, photographically-these leaves being but the plates upon which the thoughts and emotions shadowed themselves, and were caught as they arose day by day.From the Richmond Enquirer and Examiner, Friday morning, January 19, 1868: "The 'Diary of a Refugee' is a work unpretending in its character, but of rare literary merit, and of the deepest interest. It was written without any design of publication, but to preserve a faithful record, for the benefit of the many young friends and near relations of the authoress. No true-hearted Virginian can read it without the deepest emotion, and an interest far surpassing that of the most exciting romance. In truth, it is the best history of the war in Virginia, or of Virginia during the war, that has been written, no other authors having given to the passing transactions the freshness of reality by recording them as they passed. The style is animated, graceful and chaste. The book is a lively picture of the inner life of the Confederates during the war; of their hopes and fears, their joys and sorrows, through the eventful struggle. With all the personal detail is mingled a faithful account of almost every important event, from the firing of the first gun at Sumter to the surrender of Gen. Johnston.''"The Diary of a Refugee During the War." From Southern Society, Baltimore: "This work is, as a whole, a more faithful representation of the inner life of the Confederates-that life which is not shown in histories, but felt in the heart, and expressed from the lips, 'when friend holds fellowship with friend'-than any publication which we have seen since the close of the wa

President as a day of thanksgiving for our snccesses. His proclamation is so beautiful that I will copy it: "To The People Of The Confederate States: " Once more upon the plains of Manassas have our armies been blessed by the Lord of Hosts with a trinmph over our enemies. It is my privilege to invite you once more to His footstool, not now in the garb of fasting and sorrow, but with joy and gladness, to render thanks for the great mercies received at His hands. A few months since our enemies poured forth their invading legions upon our soil. They laid waste our fields, polluted our altars, and violated the sanctity of our homes. Around our capital they gathered their forces, and with boastful threats claimed it as already their prize. The brave troops which rallied to its defence have extinguished their vain hopes, and under the guidance of the same Almighty hand, have scattered our enemies and driven them back in dismay. Uniting those defeated forces and the various armies which had been ravaging our coasts with the army of invasion in Northern Virginia, our enemies have renewed their attempt to subjugate us at the very place where their first effort was defeated, and the vengeance of retributive justice has overtaken their entire host in a second and complete overthrow. To this signal success accorded to our arms in the East has been graciously added another, equally brilliant, in the West. On the very day on which our forces were led to victory on the plains of Manassas, in Virginia, the same Almighty arm assisted us to overcome our enemies at Richmond, in Kentucky. Thus, at one and the same time, have two great hostile armies been stricken down, and the wicked designs of our enemies set at naught. In such circumstances it is meet and...

Book Refugee Life in the Confederacy

Download or read book Refugee Life in the Confederacy written by Mary Elizabeth Massey and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2001-05-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Civil War spawned tens of thousands of southern refugees. Some fled from bombardment or rumor of invasion. Others were exiled by enemy commanders. Virtually none anticipated the extreme hardships they would encounter. Through diligent research in manuscripts and newspapers, Mary Elizabeth Massey brings vivid detail to all aspects of southern refugee life. Thrilling tales of displaced people scrambling for trains or making river crossings recapture the poignancy of civilians trapped between advancing and retreating armies. Massey examines the psychological effects of the war on the homeless, the humor they found in their difficulties, their activities in adopted communities, private and public aid, and legislation concerning them. The refugees created enormous problems for the southern war effort as they crowded into the ever-contracting areas of the Confederacy, disabling wartime transportation and contributing to the congestion of cities to the point that it was difficult to feed and house them. Historians have long recognized the refugees’ importance, and writers of fiction their appeal, but Massey’s Refugee Life in the Confederacy—originally published in 1964—marks the first full telling of their story. With a new introduction by George C. Rable, this comprehensive study is essential to a thorough understanding of the Civil War.
