    Looking for a book

    Gentleman
    Does anyone know if there is a book with all the Harewood Hospital photographs pictured in it? Several years ago my father & I saw a book with numerous pictures in it of soldiers who were amputees and such. It cost $100 a few years back so we both said well pick it up later, never to find it again. After reading my CRRC and seeing those picture of the Harewood men in it n my mind was triggerd. Anybody know anything? Thank you very much for reading this and for any help you can give.

    This may be it, however, I seem to recall an earlier book:

    "Bradley P. Bengtson and Julian E. Kuz. Photographic Atlas of Civil War Injuries: Photographs of Surgical Cases and Specimens of Orthopaedic Injuries and Treatments during the Civil War. Otis Historical Archives. Grand Rapids, Mich.: Medical Staff Press, in association with Kennesaw Mountain Press, 1996. 446 pp. Ill. $125.00."

      Re: Looking for a book

      I also am looking for a book. About three years ago I was at Port Hudson, and this lady had this book that she was showing one of the sutlers. I took an intrest in this book,by what she said " This book has several stories and pictures of family members that had died in it. This book talks about how the 19th century population talked, and felt about death". I remember this book being one of the larger size books. I know why they took pictures of their loved ones after they died. I would like to get more information on this subject I would like to find and purchase this book. If anyone has any idea please let me know.

      Thank You

        Mr Heath

        This may be it!! Thank you sir for the reply. I'm going to look into it. My father will be surprised if I'm able to get ahold of it. We saw it in the Wax Musuem in Gettysburg around 1998-2000. I know now next time to a least write down the title of something if i'm not buying it!! Thank you again!!
