My Cave Life In Vicksburg: With Letters Of Trial And Travel (1864) is a memoir written by a woman known only as A Lady. The book details her experiences during the American Civil War while living in Vicksburg, Mississippi, which was under siege by Union forces for over a month. The author recounts how she and her family were forced to flee their home and take refuge in a cave, where they lived for several weeks. She describes the difficult and often dangerous conditions they faced, including shortages of food and water, the constant threat of artillery fire, and the ever-present fear of being discovered by enemy soldiers. Interspersed throughout the memoir are letters written by the author to her husband, who was away fighting in the Confederate army. These letters provide additional insight into the author's thoughts and feelings during this tumultuous time. My Cave Life In Vicksburg is a firsthand account of the hardships and sacrifices endured by those who lived through the Civil War. It offers a unique perspective on the conflict and provides a glimpse into the daily lives of ordinary people caught up in extraordinary circumstances.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
