Wars, Pestilence and the Surgeon's Blade

The Evolution of British Military Medicine and Surgery during the Nineteenth Century

Omschrijving

Wars in the 19th century were accompanied by a very heavy loss of life from infectious diseases. Typhus fever, dysentery, malaria, typhoid fever and yellow fever caused many more deaths than wounds inflicted by enemy actions. During the Peninsular War, for example, for every soldier dying of a wound, four succumbed to disease.
