SUMMARY:Book Talk with Jim Downs - "Maladies of Empire: How Colonialism\, Slavery\, and War Transformed Medicine"
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Book Talk\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us as historian Jim Downs reveals that the study of infectious disease depended crucially on the unrecognized contributions of non-consenting subjects―conscripted soldiers\, enslaved people\, and subjects of the empire.\n\n\n\nPlantations\, slave ships\, and battlefields were the laboratories in which physicians came to understand the spread of disease. Military doctors learned about the importance of air quality by monitoring Africans confined to the bottom of slave ships. The field hospitals of the Crimean War and the US Civil War were carefully observed experiments in disease transmission.\n\n\n\nJim Downs is the Gilder Lehrman-National Endowment for the Humanities Professor of Civil War Era Studies and History. He is the author\, co-author\, and editor of multiple books and anthologies\, including Maladies of Empire: How Colonialism\, Slavery\, and War Transformed Medicine (Harvard UP\, 2021)\, which has been translated into Chinese\, French\, Korean\, Japanese\, and Russian.\n\n\n\nHe has published articles and essays in The Atlantic\, The New Yorker\, Slate\, Vice\, The New York Times\, The Washington Post\, The Chronicle of Higher Education\, and The L.A. Review of Books\, among others. Downs has published book chapters in several edited volumes\, most recently in Remembering the Memphis Massacre: An American Story (UGA Press\, 2020). Downs is the Editor of Civil War History. He was awarded the Sheila Biddle Ford Foundation Fellowship at the Hutchins Center for African and African American History at Harvard University in 2022-23. Downs earned his P.h.D. in History at Columbia University\, his MA in American Studies also at Columbia University\, and his BA in American Literature at the University of Pennsylvania. The Organization of American Historians named him a Distinguished Lecturer in 2014-17\, which was then renewed in 2017 and again in 2020. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReexamining the foundations of modern medicine\, Jim Downs shows that the study of infectious disease depended crucially on the unrecognized contributions of nonconsenting subjects―conscripted soldiers\, enslaved people\, and subjects of empire. Plantations\, slave ships\, and battlefields were the laboratories in which physicians came to understand the spread of disease.\n\n\n\n\nPurchase Book\n\n\n\n\nThank you for supporting our mission by purchasing through our online store.

SUMMARY:"The Unvanquished" with Patrick O'Donnell
DESCRIPTION:The Unvanquished: The Untold Story of Lincoln’s Special Forces\, the Manhunt for Mosby’s Rangers\, and the Shadow War That Forged America’s Special Operations\n\n\n\n\nThe Civil War is famously known for the huge battles that defined it such as Gettysburg\, Antietam\, and Shiloh. However\, bestselling author Patrick K. O’Donnell reveals in his book The Unvanquished that there was a crucial shadow war that took place amid and away from the major battlefields\, which was in many ways just as consequential to the conflict’s outcome. At the center of this groundbreaking narrative is the remarkable story of Lincoln’s special forces – the Jessie Scouts – told in its entirety for the first time. \n\n\n\nPatrick K. O’Donnell is a bestselling\, critically acclaimed military historian and an expert on elite units. The author of thirteen books\, including The Indispensables\, The Unknowns\, and Washington’s Immortals\, he is the recipient of numerous national awards. O’Donnell served as a combat historian in a Marine rifle platoon during the Battle of Fallujah and is a professional speaker on America’s conflicts\, espionage\, special operations\, and counterinsurgency. He has provided historical consulting for DreamWorks’ award-winning miniseries Band of Brothers and for documentaries produced by the BBC\, the History Channel\, and Discovery. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nALL SALES ARE FINAL. TICKETS AND REGISTRATIONS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE UNLESS THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR MUSEUM CANCELS AN EVENT.\n\n\nRegister on Eventbrite
