In 1775, when the staggering medical crisis known as the Revolutionary War exploded, less than 12% of the colonies' practicing physicians held a medical degree. And those that held degrees often graduated without ever seeing a patient. Here are their struggles, strategies, odd treatments and theories. This fascinating chronicle underscores the ingeniousness of America's most daring fighting men.
