I'm about 60% finished writing Book 5 of the "Intrepid Journey" series. We're still in the Civil War era. I'm going to share a picture of a hospital ship used during the war.
During March, April, May, June, 1863, this ship laid near Milliken's Bend, Louisiana, serving as floating hospital for armies under General Grant. Altogether, 23,738 patients were carried by her, of whom 530 died en route to land hospitals.
