Army Letters From An Officer?s Wife 1871 to 1888 is a collection of letters written by Frances M.A. Roe, the wife of an army officer, during her husband?s service in the United States Army from 1871 to 1888. The book provides a unique perspective on army life during this time period, as seen through the eyes of a woman. The letters cover a wide range of topics, including the challenges of living on military posts, the social life of army families, and the experiences of soldiers in the field. Roe?s writing is engaging and insightful, offering a vivid portrait of army life in the late 19th century. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in military history, women?s history, or the history of the American West.Their coming was so sudden we did not have a chance to get out of their way, and it so happened that Mrs. Phillips and I were in their line of march, and when the one in the lead got to us, we were pushed aside with such impatient force that we both fell over on the counter.
