Finally Heard Feminine Heroes of an Uncivil War

Finally Heard is a culmination of research that brings to life the stories of six remarkable women during the American Civil War era: a Richmond socialite employs her former slave and childhood apprentice to spy on the Jefferson Davis household, an immigrant woman dons the persona of a man to fight in the war for employment, a small-time war merchant travels the battlefield to supply soldiers and a slave woman intimidates her owners to allow her freedom.
