1899 JORDAN. Echoes from the Cannon. Confederate Civil War Poetry

  
This is the actual book for sale - not a stock image. Published posthumously, this collection preserves the evocative and once-suppressed verse of Virginia poet Cornelia J. Matthews Jordan, whose wartime work was famously seized by Union commanders for its perceived sedition. Edited by her daughter, the volume serves as a poignant retrospective of the Confederate experience, capturing themes of loss, resilience, and Southern memory through lyrical verse. It remains a significant literary artifact for scholars of 19th-century American female writers and collectors of Civil War history. Matthews Jordan Echoes from the Cannon.
