With Sabre and Scalpel: The Autobiography of a Soldier and Surgeon

I LOVE this book, the autobiography of John Allen Wythe of Guntersville, Alabama, a young lad serving in the Civil War who founded the American Medical Association after the war. In writing my book (see my signature below) I drew heavily from his distinct descriptions of life in the rural and wilderness South before, during and after the War.
