From the author of Survival of the Spirit and Women of the Apache Nation, this book offers a new approach to American history, American Indian history and medical history. Focusing on the bow and arrow, it also covers such subjects as early barber-surgeons, field surgeons in the Old West, a how-to on scalping, pre-Columbian surgeons, Old World healers, and several cases of recovery from arrow wounds.
