Specifikacia Between Home and the Front: Civil War Letters of the Walters Family Heidelbaugh Lynn
The personal letters of Americans during the Civil War preserve first-person accounts of the trials and tribulations of this significant period in the nation's history. These records of news, people, and emotions humanize the horrific events of the Civil War and provide unique insights into the conflict's effects on individuals, families, communities, and America.
