Abstract

Prison Pens presents the memoir of a captured Confederate soldier in northern Virginia and the letters he exchanged with his fiance during the Civil War. Wash Nelson and Mollie Scollay's letters, as well as Nelson's own manuscript memoir, provide rare insight into a world of intimacy, despair, loss, and reunion in the Civil War South. (Amazon)
