It's all inter-related
on this site: medical schools sold lecture cards, lecturers who
were authors wrote books used at the medical schools, the
surgeons who attended the medical colleges fought in the Civil
War, surgeons joined the Army, the Army bought surgical sets for
the surgeon's use, and round and round it goes.
