A Daughter of the Union
Lucy Foster Madison
Hardcover
(The Penn Pub. Co, Sept. 3, 1903)
“Jeanne Vance and her many friends worked willingly and well, doing their bit for the brave soldiers of the Union, but Jeanne longed to do more than sew and knit and help at bazaars. And miraculously the opportunity came to this spirited young girl to serve her country in a way that took her into the thick of the fighting, even into the enemy’s camp, and which called upon all the courage and ingenuity of which she was capable. Thrilling and inspiring is this story of Jeanne’s dangerous journey as she carried an important document from New York to far-off New Orleans, braving many hardships in the service of her country.” ---from the dust jacket
