Among the top physicians of the Confederacy, Christopher H. Tebault
distinguished himself as a surgeon during the Civil War. Recognized
for his medical contributions after the war, he was nominated
Surgeon General of the United Confederate Veterans, a position he
used to compile the history of Confederate medicine, advocate for
veterans and contribute to Southern literature. A staunch "Lost
Cause" proponent, he also fought Reconstruction policies and the
enfranchisement of former slaves. Drawing on his own writings, this
first biography of Tebault describes his notable medical education
in New Orleans and the ingenuity he used to treat wounds and
illness, as well as his struggles against Reconstruction policies,
situating his story in the problematic context of Confederate
history that persists today.
