After Sherman’s March - Goldsboro
at the End of the Civil War - by Emily Weil
This creative non-fiction book
tells the story of the end of the War Between the States as
it affected Goldsboro and Wayne County. It describes the Reconstruction
period by the use of letters, diaries, and other artifacts along
with family stories. The author, Emily Weil, has the diary writers
“come to life” as characters in this sweeping tale.
Sherman with his large army came to town and changed forever
the sleepy hamlet called Goldsboro. |
