I SEAT MYSELF TO WRITE YOU A FEW LINES: Civil War and Homestead Letters from Thomas Lucas and Family – Collected and edited by Dona Bayard Sauerburger and Thomas Lucas Bayard. From Civil War soldier to homesteader, the life of Thomas Lucas and those of his family members are revealed in this book through hundreds of letters written during a span of more than fifty years. Thomas and his wife Letty grew up in a small Pennsylvania town, but their lives were disrupted in 1861 when Civil War broke out. Thomas heeded the patriotic call, leaving his pregnant wife and their baby daughter Millie to serve for three years in the First Pennsylvania Cavalry. I've done my best to describe the book, but if you have additional questions, please don't hesitate to send me an e-mail.
