My Story Of The War The Civil War Memoirs Of The Famous Nurse Relief Organizer And Suffragette Mary A Livermore 9780306806582 Books

Mary Livermore was there . . . a Chicago woman who went to Civil War battlefields and nursed wounded men there. Once back in Chicago, she and others organized huge drives to collect supplies for the wounded, who were not being properly cared for at government facilities. She will bring you into those years as you read this book. Sure, she gets a little wordy sometimes -- this is the nineteenth century, after all!

The previous reviewer took exception to the term, "suffragette" -- that was the term at the time; this is the original title of the book. Language changes.

My Story Of The War The Civil War Memoirs Of The Famous Nurse Relief Organizer And Suffragette Mary A Livermore 9780306806582 Books Reviews

Suffragette was a deragatory term used by the press, when the correct term was Suffragist.
Used for research. A good read.
This book was assigned to me in my civil war Grad class, along with McPherson's battle cry of freedom. I have to say it complements it very well. Mcphersons books makes you feel like your hovering above the country during the war. If you read Livermore at the same time, your put into the war. Yes the book is a little wordy and jumps all over the place, but it holds your attention. Their are some truly moving parts in this great book from the 19th century!
