Description: Originally published in 1865, ¿Nurse and Spy in the Union Army¿ is a memoir by Emma Edmonds (1841¿1898) who famously dressed as a man in order to enlist in the 2nd Michigan Infantry during the American Civil War. She describes the time she spent in military field camps and hospitals during the war, as well as her 11 successful excursions across enemy lines in various male disguises to gather intelligence. In 1992, Edmonds was inducted into the Michigan Women's Hall of Fame. A fascinating account of one woman's incredible war-time deeds, ¿Nurse and Spy in the Union Army¿ is not to be missed by those with a keen interest in American history and the Revolutionary War in particular. Read & Co. History is proudly republishing this classic memoir now in a brand new edition complete with the introductory chapter 'The Ethos of the Spy' by Hamil Grant.
