The Wisconsin Veterans Museum welcomes Jo Ann Carr to talk about her 2019 work Such Anxious Hours, which details the letters and diaries of Wisconsin women who took care of the homes, farmsteads, and families while their spouses were off fighting during the Civil War. Jo Ann will highlight the lives of 3 women during these uncertain times and discuss the research that went into editing these stories into a collection that uncovers the oft-forgotten side of this tragic war.

This event is free and open to the public and suitable for all audiences. 

Program funding made possible by the Wisconsin Veterans Museum Foundation through the generous support of Generac Power Systems.
