Abstract | "An unabridged edition of the letters written by Harriet M. Buss to her parents during her time as a teacher for freedpeople in coastal South Carolina (1863-1864), Norfolk, Virginia (1868-1869), and Raleigh, North Carolina (1869-1871). Buss's long and varied experiences in the South were uncommon for a Northern woman in the Civil War era. In each place she worked, she taught in a different type of school and engaged with different types of students, and her correspondence offers a broad view of the Civil War era, as well as a social history of teachers and teaching"--Provided by publisher. |
