Her brother joins the Confederate army, and her family is forced to flee their home when Union soldiers occupy the town. Lottie becomes involved in the war effort, working as a nurse and helping to care for wounded soldiers. Along the way, she meets a Union soldier named Jack, and the two fall in love despite their opposing allegiances.The Lady of Big Shanty is a gripping tale of love, war, and the resilience of the human spirit.
