This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Last Ninety Days of the War in North-Carolina The papers on the Last Ninety Days op the War in North-Carolina, which originally appeared in the New-York Watchman, and are now presented in book form, were commenced with no plan or intention of continuing them beyond two or three numbers. The unexpected favor with which they were received led to their extension, and finally resulted in their republication. To do justice to North-Carolina, and to place beyond cavil or reproach the attitude of her leaders at the close of the great Southern States Rights struggle - to present a faithful picture of the times, and a just judgment, whether writing of friend or foe, has been my sole object. Slight as these sketches are, they may claim at least the merit of truth, and this, I am persuaded, is no slight recommendation with tho truth-loving people of North-Carolina.

Book North Carolina Women of the Confederacy

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long out of print, this volume of recollections, stories, and verse provides a glimpse of women's lives on the home front-and sometimes in the thick of battle-during the War between the States. Nearly fifty years after the American Civil War, Lucy Worth London Anderson (Mrs. John Huske Anderson) of Fayetteville, N.C., compiled one of the first memorial collections honoring the contributions of women to the cause. Her book North Carolina Women of the Confederacy assembled biographies, anecdotes, letters, reminiscences, and poems concerning Southern women's experience during the war. This early historical text is once again available in a new edition featuring a clean and corrected setting of the type, historical introduction and annotations, and a valuable index of personal and place names. Scholars, geneaologists, and casual readers alike will appreciate the reintroduction of this Southern classic, prepared under the auspices of the UDC Cape Fear Chapter #3. Lucy London Anderson served as North Carolina historian of the United Daughters of the Confederacy in the 1920s. She first published this record of episodes in the history of the Confederate women of her state in 1926.

Book A Study for the North Carolina Federation of Womens  Clubs  1918 19  Vol  1

This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study for the North Carolina Federation of Womens' Clubs, 1918-19, Vol. 1: A Series of Outlines Studies of the Historical Background and the Literature of the Great War This series of outline programs on the principal countries engaged in the Great War has been prepared for the use of women's clubs and reading circles. It has been adopted as the official study program of the North Carolina Federation of Women's Clubs, with the approval of the president, Mrs. Clarence Johnson, and of Mrs. Hugh Murrill, the chairman of the Department of Literature. The purpose of the outline is to provide a systematic program for the study of the Great War from an historical and literary point of view. The outline is arranged for sixteen meetings in order to conform to the calendar of the majority of the clubs which meet fortnightly during the eight winter months. If extra meetings for business or sociability are desired, they may be inserted at convenient times. If more programs are needed, the important subjects may be treated more intensively, and some special topics taken up in greater detail. Contemporary France or Russia, for instance, might well be made the subject of three or more meetings. In fact the difficulty of dealing with such a general subject has been to condense it into the required limits, and to make selection from the vast amount of literary material now available. If the manner of treatment seems somewhat sketchy and incomplete it is because many of the clubs have previously made a detailed study of several of the European countries, and because we think something may now be gained by a bird's eye look at these great nations in relation to the present crisis in the history of the world. The program for each meeting is arranged under three headings which are intended to be used as the topics for papers or essays, or for talks or informal discussions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tar-Heel War Record: In the Great World War North Carolina may well feel a strong thrill of pride when the noble enterprise of its men and women during the period of the great world conflict is rehearsed. The men were eager and willing to respond to Old Glory's call to arms and the women at home lost no time in busying themselves in things intended to lessen the suffering of those over-seas. The splen did manhood of the Old North State manifested itself time and again on the field of battle and on the high seas: How many times a North Carolinian's name went down into imper ishable fame for deeds of valor and self sacrifice in behalf of the greatest cause of all time. The women at home, God bless them, spurred them on to high purpose, fired their souls with memories of their illustrious ancestors in the days of '64 and afforded them that warmth of love and trust and faith that kept them from doing not less than the best that was in them. Many of our women went overseas as nurses, and canteen workers, and one is sure that their very presence was a blessing to our men. At home in the great drives for humane institutions they surpassed themselves in the good they accomplished. Within the covers of this book are presented symposiums of many who gave of themselves and of their substance that the world might be made safe to live in and that the despots of Europe might be erased from the maps of the future generations. When one views the war in retrospection it is then that these sketches gain the significance that give them the place in every North Carolina home that they deserve. There is doubtless in this book mention of some loved one, set forth in all truthfulness, that gives. Him or her a little firmer hold on our heart. The publishers have spent considerable time, money and effort in bringing out this book, but the compensation that is theirs in feeling that they have produced a work worth while is worth more than the material gain to be derived from their labors. As it goes to press the writer is looking over several of the proof sheets. He sees many of his dearest friends in the eulogies and one in particular who has died since the book was planned. He was a veteran of the overseas army and contracted trouble of the stomach from which he never fully recovered and which finally resulted in his death. He was a modest fel low, the best friend that one could desire, and when I wrote up a brief review of his service I did so with due modesty, for I knew well how strongly he would object to anything flowery. He just simply wanted the plain facts, without frills. And that is the way he lived and of such men North Carolina is justly proud. For he is typical of the fineness of the manhood of the state.

Book Addresses at the Unveiling of the Memorial to the North Carolina Women of the Confederacy

Download or read book Addresses at the Unveiling of the Memorial to the North Carolina Women of the Confederacy written by Ashley Horne and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Addresses at the Unveiling of the Memorial to the North Carolina Women of the Confederacy: Presented to the State by the Late Ashley Horne From time to time since the erection of the monument to the North Carolina soldiers of the Confederacy, in 1895, various plans have been suggested looking to the erection of a similar memorial to the North Carolina Women of the Confederacy. In 1911 Gen. Julian S. Carr, a representative from Durham County, introduced in the House of Representatives a bill providing for the appropriation of a sum sufficient for the erection of such a memorial. The bill, however, failed to be enacted into law. The fate of this bill was a keen disappointment to the thousands of Confederate soldiers of North Carolina who, better than any others, appreciated the services, the sacrifices, and the heroism of the women of the Confederacy. To none was the disappointment keener than to the late Ashley Home, then a representative in the General Assembly from Johnston County. Ashley Home was one of six sons whom his mother gave to the Confederacy, three of whom did not return. He himself was a mere boy of twenty when he volunteered in 1861. He saw four years of arduous service in Eastern North Carolina and under Lee in the Army of Northern Virginia. He was first assigned to Company C, 50th North Carolina Regiment, but was afterwards transferred to the Fifty-third Regiment, of which his older brother, Sam, was lieutenant, in the Daniel-Grimes Brigade, Rode's Division. After Appomattox, as orderly sergeant, he was sent to bear to General Johnston at Greensboro and General Sherman, near Durham's Station, the official news of Lee's surrender. At the close of his four years of service he returned to his home in Johnston County, where, by hard labor, self sacrifices, and sterling integrity, he accumulated a handsome fortune. His own mother was a typical "North Carolina woman of the Confederacy," and it was through her that he learned to appreciate the heroic qualities of those whom he called "our greatest soldiers from '61 to '65." Bitterly disappointed at the refusal of the General Assembly to erect a suitable memorial to the Women of the Confederacy, he determined to do so himself.

Book South Carolina Women in the Confederacy  Classic Reprint

Download or read book South Carolina Women in the Confederacy Classic Reprint written by United Daughters of the Confed Division and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from South Carolina Women in the Confederacy In the not distant future, let us hope that some foreign historian, reading this record of facts, and touched by the witchery of the theme, may, like Botta, tell another continent, in another tongue, how the descendants of those Carolina women of the Revolution, in the third and fourth generation, presented an example of fortitude more than manly. But he will have to add that, while the heroines of the first Revolution lived to exult with their surviving sons and brothers in a victory glorious and complete, the South Carolina Women of the Confederacy saw their cause go down in gloom and defeat; that cause which, throughout all the horrors of the Recon struction era, they regarded and still hold in boundless love and reverence and regret. The purpose of this book is to record, in part, the work of South Carolina women during the War for Southern Independence, not only in making banners, binding her warriors' sash, and those offices which the cold-blooded materialist classes as sentimental; but woman as a potent factor in furnishing food and clothing for the men on the battle line, and for the wounded and dying in the hospital.

This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Alumnae News of the North Carolina College for Women, Vol. 17: February, 1928 With every organization marched eight or ten French veterans as a mark of respect, and one of them standing just behind me pinned on my coat a badge which had on it u.n.c. Of course I thought instantly of University of North Carolina and felt that I wasn't so far from home after all, but I was told that it stood for United National Combat tants, the strongest of the French veterans organizations, and that I had been honored in receiving it. I did appreciate it and am very proud of it now, knowing that this man wished to show in this way his respect and admiration for American women. I Wish I could say he was romantically good looking, but none of the French men that I saw were. There were so few young men, and most of them had lost an eye or leg or arm, or looked as if they had been gassed or shell shocked. We have no conception of what a terrible reality the war was to those people; to them it was no gay adventure.

Book North Carolinians in the Era of the Civil War and Reconstruction

Download or read book North Carolinians in the Era of the Civil War and Reconstruction written by Paul D. Escott and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although North Carolina was a "home front" state rather than a battlefield state for most of the Civil War, it was heavily involved in the Confederate war effort and experienced many conflicts as a result. North Carolinians were divided over the issue of secession, and changes in race and gender relations brought new controversy. Blacks fought for freedom, women sought greater independence, and their aspirations for change stimulated fierce resistance from more privileged groups. Republicans and Democrats fought over power during Reconstruction and for decades thereafter disagreed over the meaning of the war and Reconstruction. With contributions by well-known historians as well as talented younger scholars, this volume offers new insights into all the key issues of the Civil War era that played out in pronounced ways in the Tar Heel State. In nine essays composed specifically for this volume, contributors address themes such as ambivalent whites, freed blacks, the political establishment, racial hopes and fears, postwar ideology, and North Carolina women. These issues of the Civil War and Reconstruction eras were so powerful that they continue to agitate North Carolinians today.
