Publisher's Synopsis
A Southern Woman's Story is a novel written by Phoebe Yates Pember and published in 1879. The book is a memoir of Pember's experiences as a nurse during the American Civil War. Pember was a native of South Carolina and volunteered as a nurse in a Confederate hospital in Richmond, Virginia. The book provides a vivid account of the conditions in the hospital, the patients she treated, and the challenges she faced as a woman in a male-dominated field.
