About
"...a fascinating look at military medicine at that time." Kenneth Allen
Bullets flew, cannon roared, but there was something much more insidious that stalked the battlefield, and Jim had no idea how to treat it.
Dr. Jim Banyon, an ambitious Civil War surgeon, confronts the brutal realities of battlefield medicine. His initial quest for glory gives way to a moral crusade as he recognizes the unseen psychological wounds of war, which the army dismisses as cowardice. Forced to choose between his career and his conscience, Jim must defend the broken soldiers nobody else will, a decision that will cost him everything but his own humanity.
