Description
The first comprehensive examination of pharmaceutical practice and drug provision during the Civil War. The author examines the drugs that were used, who provided and prepared them, and how they were supplied--by both the Union and the Confederacy--during the Civil War. In addition, six appendixes cover items ranging from that era's Standard Supply Table to a Materia Medica for the South to common prescriptions and basic syrups.
