About the book

"The bloodshed of the Civil War created both crisis and opportunity for the field of medicine, as doctors were forced to improvise and adapt in the hospital and on the battlefield. This new and exciting challenge in American history was captured in an equally new and exciting medium - photography." "Images of Civil War Medicine: A Photographic History is a collection of images taken during the Civil War. This exceptional visual encyclopedia covers medical facilities, individual surgeons, and other medically related phenomena, accompanied by a text describing the main features of Civil War medicine."--Jacket.
