"A Woman's Wartime Journal" by Dolly Sumner Lunt is a historical account written in the early 20th century, specifically during the 1910s. This book presents a firsthand narrative of life on a Georgia plantation during the Civil War, detailing the experiences of a Southern woman as she witnesses Sherman's army march through her home in 1864. The journal captures her thoughts on war, slavery, and personal loss, offering readers a vivid portrayal of the impact of conflict on daily life. In her diary, Dolly Sumner Lunt chronicles pivotal events from her perspective as the war encroaches upon her plantation. She documents her fears and struggles to protect her family's possessions, the disruption caused by Union troops, and the emotional turmoil she faces as her dependents, both human and animal, are taken away or harmed. Throughout the entries, Lunt reflects on the trials of wartime, including the high prices of goods, the suffering of her slaves, and her conflicted views on slavery. The journal not only serves as a personal record of her family's challenges but also provides insight into the broader context of the Civil War and the changing societal landscape.
