Great Women of the Civil War

More about the book

Imagine dodging bullets as you rush to help a wounded soldier on a battlefield. Or hiding secret messages in your skirt and sneaking across enemy lines. Women did these things and more during the American Civil War. Working as nurses, spies, abolitionists, and more, women risked their lives for what they believed in. With action-packed details from the lives of Harriet Tubman, Elizabeth Van Lew, and others, the story of the Civil War comes alive for young readers.
