Silvey, Anita I'll Pass For Your Comrade: Women Soldiers in the Civil War, 100 p. Clarion, 2008. NON-FICTION.
MS- ADVISABLE
From the first battle of the Civil War, women were involved along side the men, either overtly as nurses or camp wives and such, or covertly, disguised as men. Women weren't wanted in the war, but many persisted and made their presence know.
Photographs, lithographs and etchings from the period bring Silvey's text to life. This short, well-researched book is a good addition to a school Civil War collection.
