- Summary
-
- "In The Yankee Widow, gifted storyteller Linda Lael Miller explores the complexities and heartbreak that families experienced as men took up arms to preserve the nation and defend their way of life. Told in a smart, assured and compelling voice, this is the story of Caroline, the young wife and childhood sweetheart of Jacob, who together live on a farm raising their daughter, Rachel, just outside of Gettysburg. When Jacob joins the Northern army to do his duty and help save the Union, no one anticipates he will not return. Caroline gets news that he is wounded and has been taken to Washington, DC, with his regiment, and so she must find her way there and navigate the thousands of other wounded soldiers to find him. Thus begins this novel that focuses on the strong women and men of both sides and both races who sacrificed so much and loved so well during this critical juncture in American history."--
- Caroline and Jacob Hammond live with their daughter Rachel on a farm just outside of Gettysburg. Jacob joins the Northern army to do his duty, and Caroline gets news that he is wounded and has been taken to Washington, DC, with his regiment. When Jacob succumbs to his injuries she brings his body home-- on the eve of the deadliest battle of the war. Troops and looters roam the countryside, and Caroline must fight to protect those she holds most dear. Two wounded strangers-- from opposite sides of the fight-- are drawn to her strength and beauty. -- adapted from back cover
