When war erupted, she traded a life of privilege for a life of significance.
When the Civil War shatters the genteel world of New York society, Charlotte Waverly dares to step beyond the drawing room and enter the chaos of war. As one of America's first professional female nurses, and with a suitor who believes the work is beneath her, she's combatting more than just the rebellion.
Across the city but a world away, Irish immigrant Ruby O'Flannery is plunged into hardship when her husband enlists with the Union army. Her struggle to survive leads her on a rocky path that will intertwine with Charlotte's. As their lives converge, they'll uncover an unexpected bond forged in struggle, sacrifice, and the shared fight for dignity and purpose.
Though Wedded to War is a work of fiction, the story is inspired by real-life Civil War nurse Georgeanna Woolsey, whose letters and journals offer a thorough look at what pioneering women nurses endured.
