Abstract:
This book presents the life and work of Anna Ella Carroll, the female member of Pres. Abraham Lincoln's "kitchen cabinet." The author provides a penetrating account of a Southern lady who broke all the rules for women of the era.

This book will greatly enhance Anna Ella Carroll's stature as a heroine of the state of Maryland.--Provided by publisher.
