Requests:  0 Summary:  The number of soldiers wounded in World War I is, in itself, devastating: over 21 million military wounded, and nearly 10 million killed. On the battlefield, the injuries were shocking, unlike anything those in the medical field had ever witnessed. The bullets hit fast and hard, went deep and took bits of dirty uniform and airborne soil particles in with them. Soldier after soldier came in with the most dreaded kinds of casualty: awful, deep, ragged wounds to their heads, faces and abdomens. And yet the medical personnel faced with these unimaginable injuries adapted with amazing aptitude, thinking and reacting on their feet to save millions of lives. In Wounded, Emily Mayhew tells the history of the Western Front from a new perspective: the medical network that arose seemingly overnight to help sick and injured soldiers.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 940.47541 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 940.47541 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 940.47541 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 940.47541 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList
