From Library Journal
Brackman's second book on quilting and the Civil War (after Quilts from the Civil War) introduces the reader to nine women who lived in that era and for each includes quilt designs of the time that they might actually have stitched. Suggested activities for reenactors and an extensive bibliography of original source materials make this book of interest not only to quilters but also for American history and American studies collections in public libraries.

Book Description
Hands-on projects adapted from nineteenth-century quilts are combined with fascinating historical accounts of the period, giving this unusual book its widespread appeal among readers of many interest groups. The Civil War experiences of nine women are profiled-from abolitionist speaker Lucy Stone to freed slave Susie Taylor King to Confederate spy Belle Edmondson. Each woman is matched to a quilt that she might have made herself, as featured in nine projects, each with complete patterns and instructions.
