| 內容簡介： |
“Albert Cashier” served three years in the Union Army and
passed successfully as a man until 1911 when the aging veteran was
revealed to be a woman named Jennie Hodgers. Frances Clayton kept
fighting even after her husband was gunned down in front of her at
the Battle of Murfreesboro. And more than one soldier astonished
“his” comrades-in-arms by giving birth in camp.
This lively and authoritative book opens a hitherto neglected
chapter of Civil War history, telling the stories of hundreds of
women who adopted male disguise and fought as soldiers. It explores
their reasons for enlisting; their experiences in combat, and the
way they were seen by their fellow soldiers and the American
public. Impeccably researched and narrated with verve and wit, They
Fought Like Demons is a major addition to our understanding of the
Civil War era.
