"Sarah Buchanan 'Buck' Preston was the reigning belle of both her native Columbia and of Richmond, where her father was stationed at various times during the Civil War. As a member of the prestigious Hampton-Preston clan, a first cousin of General and later Governor Wade Hampton, and a friend of Confederate diarist Mary Boykin Chesnut, Buck, along with her sisters, Mamie and Tudie, were at the center of events in both cities, and an account of her life involves persons who were influential in both political and military circles in the Confederate capital."--Cover.
