Patriots in Disguise: Women Warriors of the Civil War

Patriots in Disguise: Women Warriors of the Civil War

Richard Hall
3.2/5 ( ratings)
For many people, the history of women in the U.S. Armed Forces begins and ends with the recent Persian Gulf War. However, as Richard Hall shows in this volume, the precedent for women in combat goes back at least as far as the Civil War. He describes women who went disguised as men, as nurses, "daughters of the regiment", and vivandieres, who often took part in the fighting. Photographs.
