Abstract:

During the early years of the Civil War, the North Carolina Medical Department, in conjunction with volunteer organization, provided medical care to Confederate troops in both North Carolina and Virginia. While at the beginning of hostilities the North Carolina Medical Department was responsible for field surgery, they transitioned to hospital care and the raising and distribution of relief funds.
