Book Review

Scarlett Doesn't Live Here Anymore: Southern Women in the Civil War Era. By Laura F. Edwards. (Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 2000. xii, 271 pp. $29.95, ISBN 0-252-02568-7.)

Writing with admirable clarity and economy, Laura F. Edwards, professor of history at Duke University, has given us a book designed to incorporate the lives of southern women into a Civil War–era lecture course. Drawing on the rich secondary literature of emancipation, African American labor history, and southern women's history, Edwards sketches a South alive with women determined to affect, if not necessarily control, their own destinies within the upheaval of war and Reconstruction. This book is a welcome addition to the United States survey as well as to Civil War and women's history courses. . . .
