Kaufmann alentines that truly match their conveying covers are quite scarce in Confederate postal history collections. One such as that shown in Figure 1 are treasured. Many offered “Confederate Valentines” are questionable or, at the least, not readily verifiable. The subject cover and homemade valentine on the previous page (which was, in effect, a handwritten letter with pressed and dried flowers) represent a use on the first Valentine’s Day of the newly formed Confederacy, but before the first shots of the warVV were fired. The cover is a 3¢ Star-Die entire (Scott US #U-26), manuscript canceled and postmarked from West Point, Ga., 15 February [1861].

Her status as an elite white woman of the New South, the wife of a Georgia politician who served two terms in the U.S.Congress, as well as the protege of Populist leader Tom Watson, allowed her unusual access to public platforms and the press.

Georgia Women: Their Lives and Times, Volume 1. Athens: University of Georgia Press, 2009. 392 pp. $69.95 (library), ISBN 978-0-8203-3336-6; $24.95 (paper), ISBN 978-0-8203-3337-3. Reviewed by Amy Benson Brown (Emory University)Published on H-SAWH (October, 2010) Commissioned by Antoinette G. van Zelm New Collection on Georgia Women Covers Broad Territory Georgia Women offers rich essays on eighteen diverse women from the colonial era through the end of World War I. The depth of thought from the contributing scholars equals the complexities of the women they write about, which is no mean feat. These Georgia women come through the pages of history with elbows out--vivid, extraordinarily persistent, deeply flawed, sometimes funny, and uncommonly canny. The choice of Susie King Taylor's resolute face for the cover of this collection signals that this history of Georgia women is not limited to the real-life counterparts of Scarlett O’Hara or the women whose family names grace prominent buildings around the state. Catherine Clinton describes how as a mere fourteen-year-old Susie King Taylor escaped slavery in coastal Georgia and married a soldier in one of the first black Union regiments. She worked in the Union enclave of Port Royal, South Carolina, throughout the Civil War as a nurse, teacher, and laundress. The record of her life survives, as is the case with many of the other women in this collection, because she penned a memoir of her experiences.
