The Medical and Surgical History of the War of the Rebellion is a rare five volume work that goes into considerable detail (not for the squeamish) about the medical condition of many patients who died from disease as well as battle wounds. Descriptive autopsy results are provided. This record documents the final days of many individual soldiers. Below are some Confederates listed in this work from 1863.
