Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Highlighting the remarkable stories of female soldiers during the American Civil War, the book profiles women like Sarah Rosetta Wakeman and Loreta Janeta Velazquez, who disguised themselves as men to fight. It also explores the contributions of women who, while not serving as soldiers, broke gender norms through roles as spies, nurses, and vivandieres, supporting the military in critical ways. Their bravery and resilience challenge traditional narratives and underscore the diverse ways women participated in the war effort.
