Excerpt from The American Medical Times, Vol. 8: Being a Weekly Series of the New York Journal of Medicine; January to June, 1864 Next, I wish to take exception to the idea that we should not regard as a condition of saving the limb the removal of splinters of bone. Whatever fi res may show in support of such a view, the experience 0 almost every surgeon is to the contrary. I believe that the wound of exit should be explored and all loose splinters of bone be removed; those that are firmly imbedded should be left. I consider this a condition almost essential to recovery. Lastly, I would oblect to the treatment of cases without apparatus. I be 'eve that a certain amount of retentive means, together with moderate extension and coapting splints, is requisite.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST • An "extraordinary ... profoundly moving" history (The New York Times Book Review) of the American Civil War that reveals the ways that death on such a scale changed not only individual lives but the life of the nation. An estiated 750,000 soldiers lost their lives in the American Civil War. An equivalent proportion of today's population would be seven and a half million. In This Republic of Suffering, Drew Gilpin Faust describes how the survivors managed on a practical level and how a deeply religious culture struggled to reconcile the unprecedented carnage with its belief in a benevolent God. Throughout, the voices of soldiers and their families, of statesmen, generals, preachers, poets, surgeons, nurses, northerners and southerners come together to give us a vivid understanding of the Civil War's most fundamental and widely shared reality. With a new introduction by the author, and a new foreword by Mike Mullen, 17th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
