Carrie McGavock was an intriguing and somewhat sad character-her devastation from the loss of her children was all consuming until that fateful day of the Battle of Franklin, when she gained a newfound sense of purpose in nursing the wounded and dying men as they took over her home and her life. She was a strong and admirable woman who wasn't afraid of a fight, and who drew from her own personal grief to comfort the mothers of the soldiers she cared for for the rest of her life.
