Reviews
"No other woman who lived through the Civil War in Washington could have seen it with the perspective of Elizabeth Blair Lee, and it is rare good fortune that her account of daily life in the nation's capital--social, political and mundane--is now available inWartime Washington. . . . Certain to remain a valuable source of insight into Washington at war."-- Nat Brandt,Washington Post Book World"An unprecedented picture of life in Washington's inner circle." --Kirkus Reviews"The letters of Elizabeth Blair Lee are an exceptional jewel in the treasury of published Civil War documents. . . . Her letters provide an unusual perspective beyond the intimate, even gossipy, view of those who served in high places. She came from a Southern slave-owning family, with relatives and friends on the Southern side. Her letters reveal better than any woman's published account the anguish of a nation and of families torn asunder." -- Elizabeth Hayes Turner,Civil War History"This intelligently edited collection of almost 400 letters by a well-connected, intelligent, and alert woman is a treasure trove for period specialists and scholars of the American family." --Library Journal"An illuminating and historically significant volume. . . . The editor's thoughtful commentary, well-chosen annotations, and succinct yet information-packed introduction combine with the letters to make this fascinating volume a 'living' historical record of great value to researchers and of lasting interest to the general public." --Booklist"Certainly one of the richest letter collections of its kind in existence, and this volume will make it much more accessible both to scholars and to the general public."-- Lawrence Frederick Kohl,Journal of American History"Laas's editing of Lee's letters is superb."-- Janet L. Coryell,Journal of Southern History"This is a very handsome volume, illustrated with well-chosen photographs; the introduction is trenchant and well written.
