Publisher's Synopsis
""The Other Side of War, With the Army of the Potomac: Letters from the Headquarters of the United States Sanitary Commission"" is a book written by Katharine Prescott Wormeley and published in 1889. The book is a collection of letters written by Wormeley during her time as a volunteer nurse with the United States Sanitary Commission during the American Civil War. The letters provide a unique perspective on the war, as they are written from the point of view of someone who was not a soldier, but who was intimately involved in the care of wounded soldiers. Wormeley's letters describe the conditions in the hospitals and on the battlefield, as well as the experiences of the soldiers and the civilians who supported them. The book offers a vivid and personal account of the human toll of war, and the sacrifices made by those who cared for the wounded and dying.During The Peninsula Campaign In Virginia In 1862.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
