"Civil War Soldier, Frances Clalin Clayton" キャンバスプリント

Civil War photo of Frances Clalin Clayton, woman who disguised herself as a man, Jack Williams, to fight in the Civil War, sitting, wearing uniform. Newspaper reports indicate that Clayton served in both cavalry and artillery units. Her story became known and widely circulated after her service, though each account contains contradictory, and in some cases dubious, information about her life and supposed service.
