WOUNDED: FROM BATTLEFIELD TO BLIGHTY, 1914-1918
Book ID/图书代码： 00200014B67033
English Summary/英文概要： Wounded traces the journey made by a casualty from the battlefield to a hospital in Britain. It is a story told through the testimony of those who cared for him - stretcher bearers and medical officers, surgeons and chaplains, orderlies and nurses - from the aid post in the trenches to the casualty clearing station and the ambulance train back to Blighty.
We feel the calloused hands of the stretcher-bearers; we see the bloody dressings and bandages; we smell the nauseating gangrene and, at London’s stations, the gas clinging to the uniforms of the men arriving home. There are the unspeakable injuries: the officer with a hole in his torso so big the doctor can see the sky beyond him; a man with no legs holding a hymnbook for a man with no arms. Together, the experiences in Wounded encapsulate what it was to fight, live and die for four long years at the Western Front.
The first comprehensive account of medical care at the Western Front, Wounded is a homage to the courageous and determined men and women who saved hundreds of thousands of lives.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 《伤员》记录了送一名战场伤亡人员去英国一家医院的行程。该故事由照看他的人讲述，有抬担架的人、医务人员、外科医生、牧师、护理员和护士，从前线的急救站到伤亡人员收容站和返回英国本土的救护车。
我们可以感受到抬担架的人长满老茧的手；可以看到带血的衣服和绷带；能闻到令人作呕的坏疽味道，在伦敦车站，还能闻到回家的人工作服上散发的汽油味。还有让人无法说出口的战争创伤：一名军官身上有个洞，洞大的足够透过洞看到天空；失去双脚的人为失去双手的人拿着一本赞美诗集。《伤员》一书概述了在西部战线上长达四年的时间里，为了什么去战斗、去生存和死去。它是第一本全面的记录西部战线上的医疗救护的书，是对救过成百上千人生命的勇敢的、坚定的男人和女人们的崇高敬意。（LNL）
