       programs -- Appendix C: Pension programs. 
520 2  "This will be the first book about the Civil War to 
       examine the meaning of amputation, and of amputees, in the
       U.S. South. Brian Craig Miller provides medical history of
       the procedure, looks at men who rejected amputation, and 
       examines how Southern men and women adjusted their ideas 
       about honor, masculinity, and love in response to the 
       presence of large numbers of amputees during and after the
       war. While some historians have explored the lives of the 
       wounded, disabled and amputated soldiers throughout the 
       major military conflicts of the twentieth century, few 
       monographs have returned to a time when medical care 
       remained primitive at best in American history: the Civil 
       War. While one recent article explored what amputation may
       have meant to Union soldiers returning from battle, the 
       same has yet to be done for the losing side in the 
       military conflict. The destruction of slavery, the 
       perseverance of the Union and the triumph of liberty, 
       freedom and equality ensured that the sacrifices of 
       Northern men would be recognized, memorialized and 
       cherished for generations beyond the battlefield. However,
       can the same be said for Southern amputated men, who 
       returned from the war scarred, disillusioned and defeated?
       In his travels in the South over the past five years, 
       Miller has combed through archives, producing a wealth of 
       surgical and medical manuals, hospital records, surgeons 
       reports, diary, letter and journal entries pertaining to 
       amputation, legislative records, pension files and 
       applications, newspaper reports and numerous anecdotes 
       about what it means to lose a limb. These sources allow 
       Miller to combine political, medical, military, social, 
       cultural and gender history into a much-needed disability 
       study of the Confederacy"--Provided by publisher.
