"After touring America during the Civil War, Englishman George A. Sala questioned “whether either ancient or modern history can furnish an example of a conflict which was so much of a ‘woman’s war’ as this.” Sala perceptively drew attention to women’s active participation and unprecedented sacrifice during the war. The Civil War forced women to take on new roles in support of their nations and families. In many ways, women made the Civil War their war."
