The author uses his father's experiences as a medic during World War II as a starting off point in his examination of the work medical personnel do on the battlefield. In addition to discussing World War II, Barris looks at World War I, the American Civil War, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the 1885 North West Resistance, the Boer War, and the 21st century wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
