Although medical technology lagged behind the development of new weapons that could kill and maim more soldiers than ever, there were advances in amputation techniques and anesthesia delivery. Additionally, the railroad and telegraph systems were hugely beneficial to the war effort and became far more entrenched in daily life after the end of hostilities. Timelines and fun facts help illuminate these innovations of the Civil War. --Amazon. 611 27 $a American Civil War (1861-1865) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01351658 648 7 $a 1861-1865 $2 fast 648 7 $a 1861-1865. 650 7 $a Influence (Literary, artistic, etc.) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00972484 650 7 $a Technology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01145078 651 0 $a United States $x Influence $y Civil War, 1861-1865 $x Influence $v Juvenile literature. 651 0 $a United States $x Technology $y Civil War, 1861-1865 $x Technology $v Juvenile literature. 651 1 $a United States $x Influence. $y Civil War, 1861-1865 $x Influence. 651 1 $a United States $x Technology. $y Civil War, 1861-1865 $x Technology. 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 651 7 $a United States $x Influence $y Civil War, 1861-1865 $x Influence $v Juvenile literature. $2 sears 651 7 $a United States $x Technological innovations $y Civil War, 1861-1865 $x Technological innovations $v Juvenile literature. $2 sears 655 4 $a History. 655 4 $a Juvenile works. 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Juvenile works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411637 830 0 $a Innovation through adversity. 941 $a 4 952 $l SIPD314 $d 20230201012956.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909040943.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006102555.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20180302010556.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=68544E7E1DE711E88A9C381B97128E48 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
