To The North Carolina Women of the Confederacy

On the grounds of the North Carolina state capitol in Raleigh, the seven foot tall monument, made possible through a private donation, honors the hardships and sacrifices of North Carolina women during the Civil War. A bronze sculpture depicts an older woman, a grandmotherly figure, holding a book as she sits next to a young boy holding a sword.
