| Sep 23 to Mar 01 More Deadly than Bullets: Illness & Disease in the Civil War A New Exhibit - Presented by: Highmark Blue Shield Illness and disease killed more men in both armies than wounds suffered on the battlefield. This exhibit will examine the enormous impact that illness and disease had on the armies of the North and South. The exhibit will focus on answering key questions, such as: Why did so many soldiers become sick and die? What was done to address the problem? What types of illness and diseases were prevalent and how were they treated, if at all? Lastly, the exhibit will also discuss the role of the Civil War surgeons and doctors, as well as male and female nurses. | |
