Summary: Mrs. Jefferson Davis
Comment: This bio of Varina Davis begins with her teen years and ends with her successful struggle to get her husband released from prison after the Civil War. Written in a simple style that can be understood by high school students, it has details that would interest Civil War buffs.

Although the author is sympathetic to the South and portrays Jeff and Varina as kind to their slaves, he shows the basic cruelty of slavery and has Varina develop doubts about its justness. The account is fictionalized but based on the writings of Mrs. Davis and others.

Varina Davis was an intelligent woman who shows courage and determination in meeting the trials that befell her family. This is an interesting book, a little dated, but still exciting.
