Vol. XI, Episode 20
Civil War Amputation Kit
Dana Shoaf, Director of Interpretation at the National Museum of Civil War Medicine, opens the archives vault to share a rare item with you. This time it is a surgical kit used in the Civil War. Through it, we chat about the challenges to medical care and opportunities that arose in the Civil War, as well as bust one very common myth! Thank you to the National Museum of Civil War Medicine in Frederick Maryland for opening their doors to share with you.
