The Missouri History Museum Archives is full of collections that provide firsthand accounts of both historic and everyday events, and give readers a more personal understanding of history. The James Love letters create a great book because the letters cover the entire span of the war and discuss many different aspects of his life. "My Dear Molly "consists of the 166 letters that St. Louisan James E. Love wrote to his fiancee, Eliza Mary Molly Wilson, during his Civil War service from 1861 to 1865. The letters discuss the Civil War, including activities in Missouri, battles, a soldier s life, and prisons, and follow the love story of James and Molly. The book begins with a prologue that describes Love s life before the war, including his immigration to the United States from Ireland, his early career, and his trip to Australia in the 1850s. The information for this section comes primarily from Love s reminiscences. The main part of the text, the letters, is divided into three sections: Love s early service with the 5th U.S. Reserve Corps, most of which was spent in Missouri; his service with the 8th Kansas Infantry, which includes descriptions of military life and battle, ending with him being wounded at the Battle of Chickamauga and taken prisoner; and his years in various Confederate prisons and his attempts to escape. Each section begins with an introduction to place the letters in their historical context and briefly explain the events and people that Love mentions in his letters. The book concludes with an epilogue describing his final, successful escape, his life with Molly after the war, how the letters came to the Missouri History Museum, and the author s discovery of her links, through family friends, to James and Molly s descendants."
