Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book by a U.S. Army surgeon, explores a range of methods proposed in the mid-19th century to transport wounded soldiers via railway during wartime. It begins by noting the logistical challenges of moving wounded soldiers during the Crimean War and the American Civil War. In particular, the author discusses the utilization of passenger and freight train cars, as well as the logistical challenges each presented. The book then discusses specific proposals for adapting train cars to medical use, including the use of stretchers and the suspension of stretchers on upright posts with elastic bands. The author also discusses the challenges of ventilation, the dangers of transporting severely wounded soldiers on trains, and the challenges of loading and unloading patients during transport on trains. This book will be of interest to historians of medicine, Civil War buffs, or anyone interested in the evolution of medical care and technologies in the 19th century. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781334174483_0
