This book was released on 2012-01-17 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Motivated by their patriotism, the Richmond Ladies were willing to make the necessary sacrifices for the Southern cause. Many sent their husbands and sons to fight for the glory of the South. However, as the war progressed, their sacrifices became harder and harder to bear. They faced shortages of food, struggled to find adequate housing, and, in some cases, endured the ultimate price of losing husbands, sons, and close relatives. As Richmond was evacuated, they braced themselves for military occupation and reconstruction. With the loss of their slaves, wealth, social standing, and homes, they entered into a new world order with few familiar aspects. Through their diaries and recollections, their story of courage and commitment to survive in an ever changing world is told. Neal Wixson selected detailed, poignant and sentimental excerpts from some of the most important accounts of Richmond during the Civil War which succeeds in capturing much of the flavor of the Confederate capital as seen through womens eyes. Michael B. Chesson, Professor of History, The American College of History and Legal Studies and author of several books including Richmond after the War 1865-1890 A vivid account of wartime Richmond as told by women who endured its physical and emotional hardships.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Capture and Occupation of Richmond: April 3rd, 1865 Our division, the Third of the Twenty-fourth Army Corps, under Brigadier-General Charles Devens, was left behind to extend over and hold the trenches thus evacuated. That night I was withdrawn from our position at the right of Fort Harrison, and stretched out in a thin line over the ground recently held by the three brigades of Foster's division. Daylight broke to find me established in General Foster's abandoned headquarters at the sallyport on the Newmarket road, at the salient of our lines, where we approached most nearly to Richmond. Here a new regiment was added to my command, and about 500 convalescents and stragglers, representing nearly every regiment in the other two divisions, were organized into a regiment, equipped, and taken upon my rolls. The brigade then comprised the following regiments: The staff, 7. Officers. Men. 11th Ct. 26 412 Major Chas. Warren commanding. 13th N. H. 13 247 Lieutenant-Colonel Norman Smith commanding. 19th Wis. 15 308 Major Vaughn commanding. 81st N. Y. 11 83 Captain Betton commanding. 98th N. Y. 17 268 Lieutenant -Colonel William Kreutzer commanding. 139th N. Y. 16 306 Major Theo. Miller commanding. Convalescents 14 546 A total of 119 2250 Of these my morning report showed 91 officers and 2219 privates for duty, and 90 officers and 1950 privates effective.
