I've always wanted a book that tells how to do field surgery. I don't feel intellectually complete if I don't know the basics of field-setting a broken limb or cleaning/debriding/sewing up a bullet/shrapnel wound (including damage to underlying organs).

Think "War between the States" + antibiotics + anaesthesia.

Any such books? Plz spare me any woeful remonstrations.

This book won't go into field surgery, but will go into emergency care for field-setting a broken limb, how to clean wounds, and when to use/not use medications.
