Description
Sunflower Sisters A Novel by Martha Hall Kelly is a historical novel that tells the story of Georgeanna "Georgey" Woolsey, a Union nurse during the Civil War. When war breaks out, Georgey follows her passion for nursing and ventures to Washington, D.C., Gettysburg, and other battlefields. In contrast, Jemma, an enslaved girl, is sold by her cruel plantation mistress Anne-May at the same time the Union army comes through. Jemma sees a chance to escape but must abandon her family in order to do so. Meanwhile, Anne-May is left behind to run Peeler Plantation when her husband joins the Union army and her brother enlists with the Confederates. This novel weaves together the stories of these two women, exploring their experiences during one of America's most tumultuous periods.
