The book provides a compelling exploration of the experiences of over half a million women from slaveholding families in the Confederacy during the Civil War. As men went off to fight, these women faced the daunting challenges of managing farms and plantations, ensuring their families' survival, and dealing with the complexities of enslaved individuals who became increasingly restless. Drew Faust vividly captures the struggles and uncertainties that defined their lives during this tumultuous period.
