Paperback. Condition: New. Advancing the cause of racial equality while saving lives Of some twelve thousand Union Civil War surgeons, only fourteen were Black men. This book is the first-ever comprehensive exploration of their lives and service. Jill L. Newmark's outstanding research uncovers stories hidden for more than 150 years, illuminating the unique experiences of proud, patriotic men who fought racism and discrimination to attend medical school and serve with the U.S. military. Their efforts and actions influenced societal change and forged new pathways for African Americans. Individual biographies bring to light Alexander T. Augusta, who challenged discriminatory laws; William P. Powell Jr., who pursued a military pension for twenty-five years; Anderson R. Abbott, a friend of Elizabeth Keckley's; John van Surly DeGrasse, the only Black surgeon to serve on the battlefield; John H. Rapier Jr., an international traveler; Richard H. Greene, the only Black surgeon known to have served in the Navy; Willis R. Revels, a preacher; Benjamin A. Boseman, a politician and postmaster; and Charles B. Purvis, who taught at Howard University. Information was limited for five other men, all of whom broke educational barriers by attending medical schools in the United States: Cortlandt Van Rensselaer Creed, William B. Ellis, Alpheus W. Tucker, Joseph Dennis Harris, and Charles H. Taylor. Newmark presents all available information about the surgeons' early lives, influences, education, Civil War service, and post-war experiences. Many of the stories overlap, as did the lives of the men. Each man, through his service as a surgeon during the war and his lifelong activism for freedom, justice, and equality, became a catalyst of change and a symbol of an emancipated future.

The cover has some wear and soiling. This report was not, when issued, approved for open publication. It was approved for general release in 1999. This report was prepared for the Defense Atomic Support Agency. Among the topics addressed are Stress Wave,Seismic Velocity, Arches, Domes, Rectangular Structures, Tensile Strength,Structural Materials, Blast, Buried Structures, Deeply Buried, Displacement, Damage-Pressure-Level Equation, Shock Response, and Structural Design. Nathan Mortimore Newmark (September 22, 1910 January 25, 1981) was an American structural engineer and academic, regarded as a founding father of earthquake engineering. He was awarded the National Medal of Science for Engineering. J. L. Merritt's (Ph.D. 58) area of expertise was in design criteria for seismic and other effects. Nuclear Geoplosics is an authoritative field of study focusing on the underground phenomena, ground motion, and cratering effects produced by nuclear explosions. It serves as a comprehensive, multi-volume sourcebook detailing the mechanical properties of earth materials, shock wave effects on soil and rock, and the resulting cavity and chimney formation. Key aspects of Nuclear Geoplosics include: It covers theory of ground motion, material properties (soil/rocks), test site instrumentation, empirical analysis, and effects on structures. The study analyzes underground effects, including cratering, ejecta, superseismic ground shock, and in-depth cavity behavior. Investigations cover the response of various media like tuff, granite, limestone, and alluvium to high-pressure shock waves. This was primarily used for understanding the engineering effects of underground nuclear detonations and the design of protective structures. The Nuclear Geoplosics sourcebook, such as the widely referenced 1964 edition (e.g., DNA 1285), remains a foundational document for analyzing the geophysical and mechanical consequences of nuclear explosions.
