The Secret Eye : The Journal of Ella Gertrude Clanton Thomas, 1848-1889 Paperback / softback

Part of the Gender and American Culture series

Paperback / softback

Description

The journal of Ella Gertrude Clanton Thomas, spanning the years from 1848 to 1889, is rare for its treatment of both the Civil War and postbellum years and for its candor and detail in treating these eras.

Thomas, who was born to wealth and privilege and reared in the tradition of the southern belle, tells of the hard days of war and the poverty brought on by emancipation and Reconstruction.

Her entries illuminate experiences shared with thousands of other southern women.
