The Civil War acted like a battering ram on human beings,
shattering both flesh and psyche of thousands of soldiers. Despite
popular perception that doctors recklessly erred on the side of
amputation, surgeons laboured mightily to adjust to the medical
quagmire of war. And as Brian Craig Miller shows in Empty Sleeves,
the hospital emerged as the first arena where southerners faced the
stark reality of what amputation would mean for men and women and
their respective positions in southern society after the war. Thus,
southern women, through nursing and benevolent care, prepared men
for the challenges of returning home defeated and disabled. Still,
amputation was a stark fact for many soldiers. On their return,
southern amputees remained dependent on their spouses, peers, and
dilapidated state governments to reconstruct their shattered
manhood and meet the challenges brought on by their newfound
disabilities. It was in this context that Confederate patients
based their medical care decisions on how comrades, families, and
society would view the empty sleeve. In this highly original and
deeply researched work, Miller explores the ramifications of
amputation on the Confederacy both during and after the Civil War
and sheds light on how dependency and disability reshaped southern
society.
