186720057Washington: Government Printing Office 1867. FIRST EDITIONS. First work with 178 figures; second with 5 photographic plates; third with 1 plate and errata slip. 5 heliotype plates and 1 engraved plate. Contemporary half morocco over boards worn on edges all edges marbled; a portion of pages 323/324 of first section torn away affecting text though a photocopy is included otherwise interior excellent. First editions of these three catalogues. The catalogue of the surgical section was edited by Alfred Woodhull 1837-1921. J.J. Woodward 1833-1884 edited the medical section and Edward Curtis 1838-1912 edited the microscopical section. Thousands of specimens are described nearly all the aftermath of the Civil War. Mostly human specimens the name and rank of the donor is noted as well as a brief summary of the context in which the injury or illness leading to death or amputation occurred. The catalogues also include comprehensive collections of surgical instruments medical artifacts including prosthetics and battlefield medical supplies and historical documents related to military medicine.<br /> <br /> The surgical section contains descriptions of over 4700 specimens “varying from cranium to tumors graphically detailing the wounds suffered by thousands of soldiers during the Civil War. The attending physician’s name is listed with each case. Many of these descriptions are specifically related to injuries which are further enumerated in the Medical and Surgical History of the War of the Rebellion†Rutkow. That catalogue is also significant because it is “the first publication that actually gives an idea as to the number and type of photographs taken by or for army physicians†during the war Burns. The third part contains a plate depicting an “Apparatus for Microphotography†and five plates depicting photographs of tissue specimens taken with this apparatus. The editors of the second and third parts Edward Curtis and Joseph Woodward performed the autopsy on Abraham Lincoln. Curtis was an early pioneer of photomicrography. <br /> <br /> The Army Medical Museum was founded in 1862 by U.S. Army Surgeon General William A. Hammond as a center for the collection of specimens for research in military medicine and surgery. Hammond directed medical officers in the field to collect "specimens of morbid anatomy.together with projectiles and foreign bodies removed" and to forward them to the newly founded museum for study. During and after the war Museum staff took pictures of wounded soldiers showing the effects of gunshot wounds as well as results of amputations and other surgical procedures. The information collected was compiled into six volumes of The Medical and Surgical History of the War of the Rebellion published between 1870 and 1883.<br /> <br /> Burns Early Medical Photography in America 1839-1883 New York 1983; Rutkow.
