Description: "Antietam Hospitals by John W. Schildt published by Antietam Publications 1986 first edition first printing. Signed Describes field hospitals at Antietam during the Civil War. You can still seed blood stains in some of these "hospitals". Clara Barton worked in one of these. Clarissa Harlowe Barton was an American nurse who founded the American Red Cross. She was a hospital nurse in the American Civil War, a teacher, and a patent clerk. Since nursing education was not then very formalized and she did not attend nursing school, she provided self-taught nursing care. Illustrated with art work and vintage photos. I have heard many authors give talks about the War Between the States but this author was the best I have ever heard. Unbiased history at its best. This copy was signed by the author in 1987. See scan. John W. Schildt grew up in Walkersville, Maryland, and is a graduate of Shepherd University and Wesley Theological Seminary. He has been a pastor, teacher and chaplain of the Twenty-Ninth Division Association.
