In Hospital and Camp

by Sophronia E. Bucklin

Long before the end of the American Civil War, Sophronia Bucklin had seen it all: sickness, shattered bodies, amputations, death, and torrents of blood. In this 1869 book, she spares the reader no detail while humanizing what would otherwise be just statistics of casualties. She and her sister nurses cared for Union and Confederate, black and white, dressed their wounds and held their hands as they died.

But she also has stories of hope and happy endings. Like her comrades, they didn’t always play by the rules but did what they thought best for the soldiers. She volunteered for service at Gettysburg. She heard the cannons up close and had shrapnel and minnie balls rip through the canvas of her hospital tent.

For less than you’d spend on gas going to the library, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones. Buy at Amazon

A special word about Sophronia Bucklin

Many books about women’s rights pioneers mention her. Her own words are found best in her book “In Hospital and Camp” It is a woman’s 388 page record of her life as a nurse among the wounded in the Civil War. Your local library can get it for you on interlibrary loan.

In Washington, D.C] “About the amputating tent lay large piles of human flesh — legs, arms, feet and hands. The were strewn promiscuously about ….the stiffened members seeming to be clutching at our clothing….We grew callous to the sight of blood….”

Do not confuse this book with Harold Elk Straubing’s book with the same title, in which he only includes one excerpt from Sophronia’s book and adds material from other Civil War doctors and nurses.

Divided Houses: Gender and the Civil War

The war changed forever the face of the nation, the nature of American politics, the status of African-Americans, and the daily lives of millions of people. Yet few of us understand how the war transformed gender roles and attitudes toward sexuality among American citizens. Divided Houses is the first book to address this sorely neglected topic, showing how the themes of gender, class, race, and sexuality interacted to forge the beginnings of a new society.

Realism and American Foreign Policy: Wilsonians and the Kennan-Morgenthau Thesis

by Steven J. Bucklin

George Kennan and Hans Morgenthau argued that moralistic and legalistic beliefs bound Wilsonian internationalists to policies outside the national interest. Establishing their claims in the decade following World War II, Kennan and Morgenthau contended that the United States had over-extended its commitments, an interpretation that came to dominate opponents’ criticisms of Wilson and his followers. Bucklin shows, after careful examination of the evidence, that the policies that Wilsonians advocated from 1919 to 1954 were generally in concert with those of the realists. Wilsonians understood balance of power politics, sought the professionalization of the Foreign Service, advocated diplomacy, and demonstrated an acute understanding of the long-term national interest.
