Details

""Medical Service in Campaign: A Handbook for Medical Officers in the Field,"" by Paul Frederick Straub, offers a comprehensive guide to the essential duties and responsibilities of medical personnel during military operations. Originally published in 1912, this handbook provides invaluable insights into the organization and execution of medical support in the field.

Straub's handbook covers a wide array of topics, including the establishment of field hospitals, the management of sanitation and hygiene, the transportation of wounded soldiers, and the prevention and treatment of diseases common in military environments. It offers practical advice on adapting medical strategies to the specific challenges of campaign life.

This historical text serves as a valuable resource for understanding the evolution of military medicine and the critical role of medical officers in ensuring the health and well-being of soldiers throughout history. It will be of particular interest to those studying military history and the history of medicine, and will appeal to anyone with an interest in the challenges faced by medics during military campaigns.
