Overview
A richly layered, emotional novel about one woman’s courage and the choices she must make in the face of a dangerous war. Caroline, the young wife of Jacob, is raising their daughter on their Gettysburg farm while her husband is away at war. When she gets word that Jacob is wounded, she must travel alone to Washington City and search among thousands of casualties to find him before he succumbs. On the eve of the deadliest battle, she finds herself back home, a widow. With troops and looters roaming the countryside, Caroline must keep her loved ones safe, while extending kindness to the neediest around her—including two soldiers fighting on opposite sides. Both are wounded; both offer comfort. But only one secretly captures her heart. Still, she must resist in such uncertain times. In The Yankee Widow, gifted storyteller Linda Lael Miller explores the complexities and heartbreak that women experienced as their men took up arms to preserve the nation and defend their way of life.
