About This Item
Atria Books, 2004. Paperback. Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. From childhood, Susan Gray and her cousin Louisa May Alcott have shared a s afe, insular world of adventures-a world that begins to evaporate with the outbreak of the Civil War. Frustrated with sewing uniforms and wrapping ban dages, the two women journey to Washington, D.C.'s Union Hospital to volunt eer as nurses. Which is a horrifying experience. There they meet the Clara Barton-the legendary Angel of the Battlefield-and she becomes their idol an d mentor. Soon one wounded soldier begins to captivate and puzzle them all- a man who claims to be a blacksmith, but whose appearance and sharp intelli gence suggest he might not be who he says he is. Journeying through the apex of Louisa's fame as the author of Little Women, and Lincoln's appointment of Clara, this novel is ultimately the story of friendship between the women who broke the mold society set for them.
