About this title

Synopsis

For a complete picture of what Women did during the Civil War you cannot go wrong with this book, paired with "Civil War Ladies". Women couldn't just go to the mall and buy things, they had to make them. Here you find an extensive workbook covering all the forms of needlework of the day as well as some additional works on household management. Practical instructions are enhanced by nearly 300 illustrations. Even if you never make anything that you find here, this historical information on the clothing, household items and accessories in use is invaluable.
