Product Description

When Confederate soldier Alexander Hunter of the 17th Virginia Infantry recalled the time he spent in Civil War hospitals, he reported, "It was to me as a hideous dream." To fight disease on the battlefield the North created the U.S. Sanitary Commission. The Confederacy created Chimborazo Hospital in Richmond, Virginia, with its 13,000 beds making it at the time the largest hospital ever built. Despite these efforts, for every soldier, Northern and Southern, who died of battle wounds, two others died from disease.
