My Dear Lady: The Story Of Anna Ella Carroll, The Great Unrecognized Member Of Lincoln's Cabinet

My Dear Lady: The Story Of Anna Ella Carroll, The Great Unrecognized Member Of Lincoln's Cabinet is a biography written by Marjorie Barstow Greenbie. The book tells the story of Anna Ella Carroll, a remarkable woman who played a significant role in the American Civil War, yet was largely unrecognized for her contributions. Anna Ella Carroll was born in 1815 in Maryland, and was raised in a prominent political family. She was well-educated and had a keen interest in politics, and at a young age, she began advising her father and other politicians on matters of strategy and policy. During the Civil War, Anna Ella Carroll became a trusted advisor to President Abraham Lincoln, and played a crucial role in the Union's military strategy. She was instrumental in developing plans for the Union's blockade of Southern ports, and also played a key role in the Union's victory at the Battle of Vicksburg. Despite her significant contributions to the war effort, Anna Ella Carroll was largely unrecognized for her achievements. She was not given a formal position in Lincoln's cabinet, and her contributions were often overlooked or dismissed by her male colleagues. My Dear Lady tells the story of Anna Ella Carroll's life and her contributions to the Civil War effort. It provides a detailed account of her political career and her role in shaping Union strategy, as well as the challenges she faced as a woman in a male-dominated field. The book is a tribute to Anna Ella Carroll's remarkable life and a reminder of the important role that women played in shaping American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
