Andersonville

At the Andersonville Prison most inmates were without shelter. They built their own homes out of cloth, mud, bricks, tree limbs, and brush. The prison was more a camp where the inmates had to care for each other to make it out alive. To get clothing prisoners had to sew their torn clothes and some did not even have clothes. When a prisoner died, they were carried outside of the prisoner was stripped of clothes to give to the other inmates. During this process some were found out to be women. The inmates that made it out say it was a brutal and harsh place to be.
