The Society for Women and the Civil War has announced the dates for its 2013 Conference on Women and the Civil War — Beyond Borders: Civilians in Service. The Conference will be held at Mount St. Mary’s University in Emmitsburg, Maryland, July 26 – 28, 2013. As part of our Sesquicentennial Remembrance of the women of the Civil War era, our 2013 Conference will highlight the women of 1863 especially those associated with the Battle of Gettysburg. We invite proposals examining all the women of the homefront and in the field, of the North or the South.
