Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Stories of surgeons battling against contagion, infection, and bleeding, often operating in appalling conditions, and achieving some remarkable results

Based on the author's exhaustive research, this is the first dedicated account of surgery during the Napoleonic Wars, before anaesthetic and antiseptic. Includes background and nature of the patients, the experience of wounding, and the training of surgeons, with extensive and many unique illustrations.



About the Author
Michael Crumplin is a retired general surgeon who has studied medicine in the Napoleonic Wars for over forty years. He is a curator and archivist at the English College and is Treasurer and Trustee of the Waterloo Committee.
