Libby Life: Experiences of a Prisoner of War (Annotated)
Frederico Fernandez Cavada
Independently Published
2016
nidottu
Long considered one of the best Civil War POW memoirs, Frederico (Frederick) Cavada's searing, funny, eloquent account based on his prison diary is a must read for all fans of the period. Captured near the Peach Orchard on the second day at Gettysburg, Lieutenant-Colonel Cavada kept an accurate and detailed journal of the men and activities at Richmond's ghastly Libby Prison. The well-educated, Cuban-born Cavada tells the tale with a generous helping of gallows humor as well as poignant vignettes of suffering and death. After the Civil War, Cavada was a U.S. consul in Cuba and resigned to join the Cuban liberation movement. Every memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever.
During the winter of 1863-1864, 1,200 Union officers lived in squalor and semi-starvation in Richmond's Libby Prison, known as "The Bastille of the South." On February 9, 109 of those officers wriggled through a fifty-five-foot tunnel to freedom. After an all-out Rebel manhunt, survivors reached Washington, and their testimony spurred far-reaching investigations into the treatment of Union prisoners. Libby Prison Breakout tells the largely unknown story of the most important escape of the Civil War from a Confederate prison, one that ultimately increased the North's and South's willingness to use prisoners in waging "total war."

With the death of Mr Everard, the Swanley Court School is short of a trustee. The Bishop of Norchester suggests his own Godson, one Lucius Belvoir, whose avocation and business are horticulture. Libby is keen to involve her girls with growing food for the table or flowers for the parlours and asks Lucius to fill the vacant post. After a rather unfortunate start, since Lucius is bedevilled by a misapprehension, Lucius and Libby begin to form a somewhat stormy partnership, united over the problems caused by some of the choicer spirits from the harsh Oxford school. The Goyder twins are now old enough to be more use than problem, but are keen to be out in the world before the O'Toole twins are old enough to cause mayhem. Add to the mix Lucius' much younger brother, who has a deformed hip, the problems surrounding the orphan girl he meets and brings with him, and the malice of a family the Belvoirs have informed on, and the transition to a new trustee is never going to be quiet and peaceful.
