Awful
25 Mar 2004
Format:Hardcover
I have been researching women soldiers in the Civil War for five years now, and feel that I am quite qualified to write that this book is below par. Bonnie Tsui repeats what has been written in several other books, not revealing any new information about these remarkable women. She over-uses DeAnne Blanton and Lauren Cooke Burgess's excellent <i>They Fought Like Demons</i>, and I felt that Tsui only became interested in this topic because of that book. I also felt that Tsui wouldn't have gotten this book published had she not graduated from Harvard and had the resulting "connections."

Outstanding
12 Sep 2003
Format:Hardcover
For general readers and Civil War buffs alike, this book brings a new understanding of the valiant women who served in both Union and Confederate armies during the war. These ladies were the heroic forerunners of the women soldiers who serve so well today. Well written, researched in depth,thoroughly documented and easy reading. A worthy addition to Civil War literature.

quality historical journalism

Format:Hardcover
Tsui's treatment of this infrequently visited aspect of the civil war is honest, historically accurate, and captivating. She writes with a subtlty found only in the best historical authors.
