SUMMARY:How Civil War Medicine Killed President James Garfield
DESCRIPTION:When an assassin’s bullet struck James Garfield in July 1881\, the battle to save the president’s life began. In the weeks that followed\, doctors argued over how to treat the stricken executive. In the end\, Dr. D. Willard Bliss\, a former Civil War surgeon\, took control of Garfield’s recovery and controversy has surrounded his role ever since. Historian Jake Wynn will discuss the history of Garfield’s recovery and how antiquated techniques learned by Dr. Bliss during his Civil War experience played a role in James Garfield’s death in September 1881.\n\n \nJake Wynn is the Senior Marketing and Communications Manager at Visit Frederick and the former National Museum of Civil War Medicine Director of Interpretation. He is a 2015 graduate of Hood College\, with degrees in history and communications arts. He has formerly worked with Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania National Military Park\, and the Heart of the Civil War Heritage Area.\n \n\n\nThe presentation is included with admission to the Clara Barton Missing Soldiers Office Museum and FREE for NMCWM members.
