Product Information
Wild Rose tells the story of a remarkable woman, Rose O'Neal Greenhow, a grande dame of Washington society who became a Confederate spy during the Civil War. A ravishing and fearless Southerner who used feminine wiles to charm military secrets out of Union officials, she helped change the course of the war, beginning at the Battle of Bull Run. Greenhow was a disciple of South Carolina statesman John C. Calhoun, had tea with Dolley Madison, socialized with President Martin Van Buren, advised President James Buchanan, and became a threat to President Lincoln, who jailed her for espionage. Ann Blackman found a previously unpublished diary Greenhow kept during her year abroad and draws on it, as well as extensive historical research, to show how Greenhow's dramatic personal life prepared her for a wild and dangerous mission. From the Maryland plantation where her drunken father died, allegedly at the hands of his personal slave, to her own violent death at sea, Rose Greenhow led a life filled with tragedy, drama, and passion. Wild Rose is a superbly researched and wonderfully readable story about an influential woman who played an extraordinary role in history.

Reviews
"Tales of Civil War spies are often full of embellished and romanticized derring-do. Not so with Ann Blackman's thoroughly researched biography of Rose O'Neale Greenhow, whose remarkable life needs no embellishment. The story of Rebel Rose, told here with great skill and lucidity, illustrates yet again that truth is stranger than fiction." James McPherson, author of Battle Cry of Freedom "This is a fascinating tale of intrigue and suspense. Blackman has discovered some truly remarkable, never-before-published papers that reveal how deeply involved Rose Greenhow was in the Confederate cause." Cokie Roberts, National Public Radio commentator, author of Founding Mothers "The first comprehensive story of a remarkable woman whose passion for the Southern cause was equal to that of any soldier who fought for southern independence. Well worth reading." Jim Lighthizer, President, Civil War Preservation Trust "For anyone wondering what role women played in shaping the course of history of the United States, Ann Blackman has an answer: Rose Greenhow. The story of Wild Rose has everything: power, intrigue, passion, and a clever, determined woman at the center. This is a great read." Judy Woodruff, CNN anchor, Judy Woodruff's Inside Politics "Sexy, audacious, determinedRose O'Neale Greenhow finally gets her due as a power player in American history. Relive the Civil War through the exploits of this Southern patriot, who dazzled Washington and Europe long before women were supposed to behave so boldly." Lynn Sherr, ABC News correspondent, 20/20 "Ann Blackman has brought all the skills she honed as a Washington journalist to tell the story of a fascinating woman of the nineteenth century. Here is the Confederate spya courtier, a savvy Southerner, a rebel in her own rightshown with all her strengths and flaws."
