The Poor Historians: Medical History Misadventures

U.S. Civil War Ambulance Corps (with National Museum of Civil War Medicine)


Listen Later

This week's episode features a special guest collaboration!  Kyle Dalton, from the National Museum of Civil War Medicine joined us on the show to talk about the origins of ambulance service.  Believe it or not, figuring out how to safely extract wounded soldiers was not a high priority at the time of the U.S. Civil War.  Fortunately, we'll talk about how that situation did improve.
