Download or read book Kate Cumming s Civil War Journal Abridged Annotated written by Kate Cumming and published by . This book was released on 2016-11-16 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kate Cumming has become an iconic minor figure of the American Civil War. Her book has been excerpted many times in other works and even in the PBS documentary, Abraham and Mary Lincoln: A House Divided.Her extraordinary journal of her time as a nurse in Confederate hospitals is important for illuminating the history of medicine of Civil War nurses and as an example of the writing of an educated southern woman caught up in the catastrophic effects of war. Kate was highly religious, poetic, compassionate, amusing, embittered by the war, blamed Abraham Lincoln for all that befell the south, and was blind to the realities of African-American life. Yet her record captures the reader and it is difficult to dislike her.Every memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beautiful, brilliant, opinionated, and very witty, 21-year-old Sarah Morgan began a diary in 1862 to chronicle the effects of war upon her family and friends. Throughout the diary, you see a young, self-aware woman both fascinated and appalled by what she saw during four years of the American Civil War in the south.Devoted to family, she worried about her brothers in the Confederate cause, her mother's health, and the home they had to abandon. Yet she was also full of fun, running out with friends to watch the Union bombardment of Baton Rouge and describing it immediately in her diary. She saw battles between gunboats on the Mississippi and Union troops marching through her beloved home city.All the while, her lovely writing will delight and enthrall you. She had an ear for language and an eye for detail. Since its first publication in 1913, it has been considered one of the best Confederate memoirs available.Every memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever.

Download or read book Sweet Restorer Diary of a Civil War Nurse Expanded Annotated written by Elvira J. Powers and published by . This book was released on 2016-11-09 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not all of the suffering in the American Civil War was experienced by front-line soldiers. Doctors and nurses shared in what we today call post traumatic stress disorder. Not many of them wrote as eloquently as Elvira Powers.Having already suffered the death of four children before the war, and with her husband away in the Union army, Elvira Powers headed to the south to work in the Union hospitals."'A hospital is no place to form attachments,' said one lady in this hospital to another. Perhaps it is not wise to form attachments, but if they grow themselves, as between a mother and sick child, with every cry of pain, or bestowal of attention, what is one to do about it? It happens that my large family of boys, being under the guardianship of their Uncle Sam, are liable at any time to be torn from my maternal oversight."Elvira saw and attempted to relieve a great deal of suffering of young men torn to pieces by war and sickened by disease. Fortunately for us as readers, she not only wrote her in her journal with a tender, articulate voice, but she relieves us, as she did herself, with great wit and humor throughout.In 1866, with the war over, she turned her journal into one of the best accounts of combat hospital life ever written.
