I recently came across (via: greg.org) the flickr page of the Otis Historical Archives, which is an unofficial archive of the National Museum of Health and Medicine. They have been posting photographs and clinical descriptions of the wounds suffered by soldiers during the Civil War.
As we are coming upon the 150th anniversary of the start of the American Civil War, I have really been getting into the history of the Civil War and I can't get enough! I just got Battle Cry of Freedom in the mail today and have been loving the Disunion blog on the NYtimes.
