Mercer University Press proudly revives this acclaimed real-life account of what the fictional Scarlett OHara saw. Life in Dixie During the War, first published in 1892, ranks among the best first-person accounts of the American Civil War. Mary A. H. Gay eloquently recounts her wartime experiences in Georgia and bears witness to the suffering and struggle, defeat and despair, triumph, and hope that is human history. Mary Gay was not only a chronicler, but an active participant in wartime activities; old veterans described her as unusually brave and fearless. While her book reads like a novel, it continues to be praised by modern scholars as an honest report of American history. James I. Robertson, Jr., author of the acclaimed Stonewall Jackson: The Man, the Soldier, the Legend, says Mary Gays Life in Dixie During the War is one of the few authentic personal narratives we have of life in Atlanta during the Civil War.
