Surgery of the First World War, with Lindsey Fitzharris

Surgery of the First World War, with Lindsey Fitzharris

By iHeartPodcasts and Grim & Mild

"[T]he science of healing stood baffled before the science of destroying." The consequences of World War I weren't limited to deaths on the battlefield. Men returned home disfigured beyond recognition, and the esteemed surgeon, Sir Harold Gillies—(hard "G" sound)—made it his mission to help. I interview the historian Lindsey Fitzharris about her new book, The Facemaker.
