Episode Notes

The defeat of the Confederacy in the American Civil War changed almost every aspect of life for those living in the South, but only in recent decades have historians explored how life changed for women during this fascinating time period. In this episode, Marie Walker interviews Dr. Katherine Rohrer of the University of North Georgia on this topic whose areas of expertise include the 19th and 20th century U.S. South, race relations, women's history, and religion.
