摘要

The Civil War altered every facet of American society. Unprecedented numbers of American women were forced to assume the role of head of household. They were left in charge of farms, households, children, and businesses while their husbands fought a conflict previously unmatched in its level of destruction and bloodshed. Of the men who left their families for the war, 620,000 never returned home, thereby changing the lives of many American women forever. This paper will scrutinize approximately 450 letters written between Union Major Thomas T. Taylor and his wife, Margaret 'Maggie' Taylor (300 from Taylor; 150 from Maggie). The Taylors lived in Georgetown, Ohio, a bustling town on the Ohio River in Brown County about 30 miles southeast of Cincinnati. (Author).
