Reminiscences of Peace & War, Mrs. Roger Pryor, 1905 A Woman's View, Civil War

Description: Reminiscences of Peace and WarPryor, Mrs. Roger A.Published by Macmillan, New York, 1905 The author writes "the causes which precipitated the conflict between the sections and the momentous events which attended their struggle have been recounted by writers competent to the task. But descriptions of battles and civil confusions do not exhibit the full condition of the South in their crisis". It occurs to the author that a plain and unambitious narrative of her recollections of Washington society during the calm which preceded the storm, and of Virginia under the afflictions and sorrows of the fratricidal strife, will not be without interest in the retrospect of that memorable era. This story was written as it appeared to a woman rather than a statesman or philosopher. I am a relatively new seller on eBay. I am not a dealer. I have been a private collector of Civil War and Western Americana books and ephemera for about 30 years. I have recently decided to reduce the size of my library. I will be posting many, many Civil War and Western Americana related books in the coming months. Many of the items are very scarce.
