Military Medicine

La figura di Josef Mengele è una delle più inquietanti tra quelle dei protagonisti della follia nazista. Il suo nome infatti è tristemente celebre per il suo ruolo all'interno del campo di sterminio di Auschwitz, in cui Mengele lavorò per 21 mesi come medico. Per tutto quel periodo Mengele, soprannominato ben presto "l'Angelo della Morte", trasformò l'ospedale di Auschwitz in una clinica degli orrori seviziando le vittime del campo con esperimenti disumani e terrificanti, torturando bambini, nani, rom e, soprattutto, i gemelli, la vera ossessione del folle dottore nazista.

He tells the story of how the men and women of the 95th survived the war.

Invalid teenager Leroy Wiley Gresham left a seven-volume diary spanning the years of secession and the Civil War. He was just 12 when he began, and he died at 17, just weeks after the war ended. LeRoy’s diary offers an inside look at a fateful journey that robbed an energetic and likeable young man of his youth and life. I Am Perhaps Dying adds considerably to the medical literature by increasing our understanding of how tuberculosis attacked a young body over time, how it was treated in the middle 19th century, and the effectiveness of those treatments.
