Julia Ann Demoville Morgan's memoir of the Civil War is illuminating as an example of a Confederate remembrance by an upper-class, slave-owning woman. Her family was well-connected and her husband began the war as a manufacturer but served in the military and was wounded.
There is no question that southern families suffered during the war and Julia describes that here. What is more interesting is that nearly 30 years later, she was still espousing the virtues of the Confederate cause and fondly remembering the affectionate relationships with those she enslaved. In that, hers is a valuable memoir to help us understand the mind of the slave-owning class during the war.
Every memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever.
For the first time, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.
