Synopsis
The famous diarist Mary Chesnut recorded the events and her reflections on the Civil War and its leading personalities from within the aristocratic circles of Southern society. Reproduced here, Chesnut's famous diary is accompanied by a collection of painstakingly annotated personal photographs never before published, and some that have never before been seen. This exquisitely produced two-volume work includes Mary Chesnut's diary, which was originally published 40 years after the Civil War, and her personal photo albums. Thought to be lost or stolen since the 1930s, the albums were only just rediscovered in 2007. An astonishing historical treasure, the photographs are annotated with information about each person depicted and edited by Chesnut's family. Photographs range from many of Jefferson Davis and other famous military leaders and statesmen to those within Chesnut's social circle: Gen. Wade Hampton III and his family including the Preston girls- and their suitors Gen. John Bell Hood and battlefield surgeon, Maj. John T. Darby; literary figures, such as writer Alexander Dumas; and many more individuals, including young soldiers of the elite Charleston Light Dragoons, Elizabeth Allston Pringle - the 'woman rice planter' of South Carolina, and Baltimore spy Hetty Cary., "The photograph album will afford both Chesnut scholars, students of American culture and literature, and Civil War buffs alike an absolute treasure trove of primary source material to study and celebrate. In this two-volume collection, Daniels reanimates Chesnut's ambition to share her epic view of the great tragedy of Civil War as we never have seen it vivified before." -Julia Stern, Northwestern University, author of Mary Chesnut's Civil War Epic "An engrossing work! I was fascinated by the saga of the cartes de visite . . . this conveys the excitement of the hunt, and more importantly it is clear to me that Chesnut's careful amassing of these photographs evidences the seriousness over many years with which she worked on a publishable version of her journals." -Elisabeth Muhlenfeld, biographer of Mary Chesnut, former president of Sweet Briar College, chairman of the American Civil War Center This exquisitely produced two volume set includes Mary Chesnut's diary, which was originally published forty years after the Civil War, and her personal picture albums. Lost or stolen since the 1930s, the albums were only rediscovered in 2007 and filled with annotated pictures of the many people found throughout Mary Chesnut's personal diary. The diary itself has been enhanced by cameos and woodcuts throughout each chapter. ABOUT THE AUTHORS Martha M. Daniels provides an introduction to both volumes. Her well-researched accounts give life to the photographs accompanying the diary for the first time. She is a member of the eighth generation of the Chesnut and Williams family to preserve Mulberry Plantation-the original home of James and Mary Chesnut. Barbara E. McCarthy lives in Camden, South Carolina, on her horse farm. Her background in medical interpretation and interest in horses and history led to a collaboration with Daniels. McCarthy works in the Mulberry Archives transcribing old documents, digitizing records, and researching Southern history. James Everett Kibler is a writer and professor of English at the University of Georgia and recipient of the Jefferson Davis Lifetime Achievement Award for his literary works.

    Exactly what I wanted!!! I used to have this exact thing when I was a kid and had to buy me one since it got lost when moving! Now being 20 and having my own money I was beyond happy buying this! I ran into a little issues with shipping but the customer service was excellent and a few days after it was scanned in and sent here! It was packaged pretty well and came with tons of bubble wrap!! Absolutely worth the value and came as described! Thank you so much once again this is amazing!!!
