Critics and readers alike fell in love with the voice of ninety-nine-year-old Confederate widow Lucy Marsden, one of the most entertaining and loquacious heroines in American literature. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Lucy married at the turn of the twentieth century, when she was fifteen and her husband was fifty. If Colonel William Marsden was a veteran of the War for Southern Independence, Lucy became a veteran of the veteran with a unique perspective on Southern history and Southern manhood. Lucy's story encompasses everything from the tragic death of a Confederate boy soldier to the feisty narrator's daily battles in the Home--complete with visits from a mohawk-coiffed candy striper. \u003cb\u003eOldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All\u003c\/b\u003e is a marvel of narrative showmanship and proof that brilliant, emotional storytelling remains at the heart of great fiction.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All | Allan Gurganus | Quality | 9780375726637 | New | Fiction 1373380","offer_id":67723802509464,"sku":"1373380","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/515EE-Ju1RL.jpg?v=1792060613","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/oldest-living-confederate-widow-tells-all","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
