Omschrijving

The Lady of Big Shanty is a historical fiction novel written by Frank Berkeley Smith in 1909. The story takes place during the American Civil War and revolves around the events that led to the famous Andrews Raid, also known as the Great Locomotive Chase.The protagonist of the story is a young woman named Sally Carter, who lives in the town of Big Shanty, Georgia. Sally is engaged to a Confederate soldier named Tom Andrews, who is part of a group of soldiers planning a daring mission to steal a Union train and destroy the railway tracks behind them.When Sally learns of Tom's plan, she becomes conflicted between her loyalty to the Confederacy and her love for Tom. As the raid unfolds, Sally finds herself caught in the middle of the conflict between the Union and Confederate forces, and must choose where her loyalties lie.The Lady of Big Shanty is a gripping tale of love, loyalty, and sacrifice set against the backdrop of one of the most dramatic events of the Civil War. Smith's vivid descriptions of the era and the characters' struggles make this book a must-read for anyone interested in American history or historical fiction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
