Sinopsis
Ms. Edmonds writes about the numerous battles she participated in, including Bull Run, Williamsburg, Antietam and Fredericksburg. Note: DSI, the publisher of this e-book, is granting readers the right to print excerpts of this book as well as the right to lend/give this e-book to other Glassbook Plus Reader users. Printing: Users can print up to 100 e-book pages every seven days. Students and researchers will find this feature especially useful. To print, click on the menu button in the Glassbook Reader and select the print option. Lending/Giving: We currently have two ways to lend or give a book: you can beam it to a computer if both have infrared ports, or you can send it to a computer on your network. To lend a book to someone else, go to the Library, click a book. Click the Menu button and then click Lend/Give to display the Lend/Give dialog box. Choose a loan period or click Give. To send the book over an infrared connection, click Beam. To send the book to a computer on the network, enter the computer name in the Send To box and click Send. You can either lend the book or give it away. Like a paper book, there is only ever one working copy. Once the lending period expires, you get your rights back and you can re-read the book or lend it again. Of course, if you give it away, it's gone for good (unless the recipient gives it back).
Reseñas
I purchased this book at the Printers Row Litfest in 2019. This book, which was published in 1865, the last year of the Civil War, concerns a woman from Canada who fled to the U.S. to escape an arranged marriage and then enlisted in the Union Army, dressed as a man and using a male name as an alias. She got away with her deception and she actually took part in the fighting, as well as acting as an Army nurse (despite the fact that she had no training of any kind) and she also acted as a spy, dyeing her skin to look like an African American. I have read many books on the Civil War, including first person accounts, but I have never read another one like this. I recommend the book to anyone who likes to read about the Civil War.
