Angels of the Battlefield / A History of the Labors of the Catholic Sisterhoods in the Late Civil War

by George Barton

Fills “A Gap in the Chronicle of the Gruesome Years of the War.”

The unselfish deeds of other women have been often related, but the incessant and universal help of the Catholic religious of the battlefields has never yet been placed in an orderly fashion before the world.—Catholic Standard and Times, Philadelphia.
