Ep134. 'They Fought Like Demons' Interview with DeAnne Blanton

We're joined by a very special guest, DeAnne Blanton, author of 'They Fought Like Demons: Women Soldiers in the Civil War' and former archivist at the National Archives! DeAnne is a WEALTH of knowledge and we could listen to her all day (but you'll have to settle for an hour.) We talk nasty jobs during the American Civil War, an unidentified woman soldier, and how rough civilian life was! Grab your shapeless pants and don't treat women like secretaries, because we're wining about herstory!Buy the Book: https://www.amazon.com/They-Fought-Like-Demons-Soldiers/dp/1400033152Support the show10% Off Your First Month of BetterHelp: betterhelp.com/herstory www.buymeacoffee.com/wahpod Join the Funerary Cult: https://www.patreon.com/winingaboutherstorySponsor a Glass of Wine: https://buymeacoffee.com/wahpodGet Merch: https://wining-about-herstory.myspreadshop.com/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
