Inspired by the touching real-life letters of Jacob and Emeline Ritner, a husband and wife separated by the Civil War, quilter Becky A. Wright has designed quilts to pair with the captivating stories the couple shared. Life on the battlefield, struggles on the homefront, and love maintained through nearly four years of separation are captured in 11 antique-style designs. Authentic excerpts from Jacob and Emeline's letters shed light on the inspiration behind each quilt and give quilters a taste of what life was like for everyday people during the Civil War.
