Three Came Home - Lorena: A Civil War Trilogy

By a and Edward Aronoff

Imitating the manners and mores of a bygone century, Southern men treated their women with an exaggerated courtesy, putting them on a pedestal built on air.Yankees had no such delusions.On July 9th, 1864, in Norcross, Georgia, General William Tecumseh Sherman ordered the Brigadier General Joseph D. Webster to "Deport those civilians working for the Rebels. When they reach Nashville, have them sent north to the Ohio River and turned loose to make their way back where they won't do us any harm."Upon entering Atlanta, General Sherman declared: "Any female working for the Confederate war effort will be sent as far north as Canada, penniless, and bereft of any support."Lorena, a Confederate General's wife, is found working in an arms factory. She is soon thrown into the molten crucible called the Battle of Atlanta.
