This book provides a rare window into the lives of southern women during the post-Civil War era. The author, Myrta Lockett Avary, was herself a rebel sympathizer during the war and had first-hand experience with the hardships and challenges faced by southern women during and after the conflict. With empathy and insight, Avary paints a vivid picture of life in the aftermath of the war, from the struggle to rebuild the shattered South to the fight for equal rights for women. Dixie After the War is a moving testament to the resilience and courage of the women who lived through this tumultuous period in American history.
