Nuns of the Battlefield is a book written by Ellen Ryan Jolly that explores the often-overlooked role of Catholic nuns in the American Civil War. The book delves into the experiences of nuns who served as nurses, administrators, and even spies during the conflict. Jolly highlights the bravery and dedication of these women, who risked their lives to care for wounded soldiers and support the Union cause. The book also provides historical context for the role of Catholicism in the Civil War, and the challenges faced by nuns in a society that often viewed them with suspicion. Overall, Nuns of the Battlefield offers a fascinating and inspiring look at the contributions of these often-forgotten heroes of the Civil War.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
