It was a scandal that rocked Chapel Hill in the aftermath of the Civil War. Ella Swain, youngest daughter of the President of the University of North Carolina, fell in love with and married the Union General whose troops came to occupy the town. Suzy Barile, the couples’ great-great-granddaughter, tells their true and tragic love story in a new book of nonfiction, “Undaunted Heart: The True Story of a Southern Belle & a Yankee General” (Eno Publishers/2009).
