Publisher's Synopsis
âThe Battle of Franklin, The Little Girl at Spanish Fort, and Other Poemsâ by James McCarty Oliver presents a collection of poems reflecting on the American Civil War and related themes. Oliver, writing shortly after the war, captures the sentiments and experiences of the era through vivid imagery and emotional verse. The collection includes reflections on specific battles, such as the Battle of Franklin, and intimate portraits of individuals affected by the conflict.
This volume offers a valuable glimpse into the literary landscape of the post-Civil War period and provides insight into the ways in which poetry served as a medium for processing national trauma and commemorating significant events. Oliver's work is a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the enduring power of poetry to convey historical narratives and personal reflections.
