The Unionist's Daughter

Both sides during the American Civil War used literature to bolster civilian and soldier morale, as well as propagandize. In the case of the romance story, the audience was specifically civilian women.

The story of Eleanor Beaufort is a tale of a young women of privilege who much choose between love and principles. It was first published in 1862, during the second year of the war, by a Union author. By turns pouty, seductive, intelligent, and courageous, Eleanor makes her way through a catastrophic time in American history.

Mrs. Victor used historical sources for the background of her story and includes those in the addendum.
