Susie King Taylor's memoir is the only known first-person account by an African American woman of her service with the Union Army during the Civil War. Taylor, born enslaved in Georgia, served as a laundress, nurse and teacher to Black troops and later wrote plainly about camp life, freedom and Reconstruction. This University of Georgia Press edition adds an introduction and notes that place her account in context. It is short and direct, and it pairs well with later Civil War memoirs and with modern histories of Black women in the war.
