Overview

Victorian girls wore long dresses made of cotton or linsey-woolsey, which is a woven linen and wool blend. The dresses buttoned up to the throat. Outside, female children of the Civil War-era used simple cotton bonnets that tied under their chin to protect them from the sun. This book contains historically accurate descriptions and illustrations of clothing, shoes, bonnets, jewelry, hairstyles, hoopskirts, corsets, and other undergarments of Northern women from 1861 to 1865 and information on the making, purchasing, and decoration of garments during the Civil War. Also includes information on clothing worn by nurses that served during the Civil War.
