These letters chronicle the wartime courtship of a Confederate soldier and the woman he loved--a sister-in-law of Abraham Lincoln. Letters were their sole lifeline to each other and their sole means of sharing their hopes and fears for a relationship (and a Confederacy) they had rashly embraced in the heady, early days of secession.
