Description: Her Name Was Olivia: A Story of Post Civil War Tennessee [Paperback] Carol Britt Eason Product Overview ABOUT THE BOOK: Her Name Was Olivia is the endearing story of a young woman's joys and tribulations during the post-Civil War era of west Tennessee. Settlement life was extremely difficult after the end of the Civil War and medical care, transportation, and the tools of daily living were primitive. A family had to be truly self-sufficient, committed and very determined to survive. Young Olivia loved her family and the country life she had been born into, but she would have to make many heartbreaking decisions during her short lifetime. Would she choose her family or would she choose the man she had loved all her life? Extended family members still remember her fondly and her legacy continues to be the devotion and love she had for her orphaned brothers. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Carol Britt Eason spent her childhood on her grandfather's farm in western Tennessee. She developed a passion for American History early in life and often heard her mother and her aunts speak of their father's deceased sister, Olivia.

Carol graduated from Titusville High School in Titusville, Florida while her father worked as a missile mechanic and inspector for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) at Cape Kennedy. She eventually earned a Bachelor of Social Work Degree from Freed-Hardeman University in Henderson, Tennessee. She is a career employee for the Tennessee Department of Human Services.
