Publisher's Synopsis
Adelaide nee Stuart Dimitry (1843- c. 1911), was the historian of the "Stonewall Jackson Chapter" of the New Orleans United Daughters of the Confederacy. She was born of splendid Southern lineage, a Mississippian, but of the Stuart family of Virginia. As the wife and intellectual helpmate of Prof. John Dimitry, she lived in an atmosphere of culture and scholarship. She was qualified both by birth and experience to write feelingly and in authentic fashion.
