Description
1860-Michigan Territory- Millicent is enjoying life on the farm with her husband and children, but when Abraham Lincoln is elected President, her world is shaken in ways she never imagined.
When her husband enlists to fight for the Union it begins a cascade of events that plunge her family and life into turmoil. As the challenges become harder and harder to manage, Millie learns that she is stronger than she thought she could be, and more resilient than she ever thought she would need to be.
This story is loosely based on the life of my great-great-great grandfather and his family whose struggles I have come to understand through years of my genealogy work. Men who fought and died in war should be recognized and celebrated for their sacrifice, but we often forget the trials of the women left behind. Ordinary women whose accomplishments were anything but ordinary. This story amplifies those voices and tells their story for all to hear.
