Description
"In telling the stories of soldiers, families, physicians, nurses, and administrators, [the author] concludes that medical science was not as limited at the beginning of the war as has been portrayed. Medicine and public health clearly advanced during the war-- and continued to do so after military hostilities ceased"--Dust jacket.
