Bodies in Blue
Soldiers have always worked. And, like others engaged in “high-risk” occupations (e.g., hard rock miners, oil derrick operators, medical care workers), they routinely get hurt on the job. This was certainly the case during the American Civil War (1861 – 65), which until the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic held the dubious distinction of being the deadliest event in US history. Underpaid and often treated with disregard by higher-ups, the average infant…
Our Faunal Defense in Africa
"Our Faunal Defense in Africa":Imperial Survivalism, Anglo-American Conservation, and African Independence in the Twentieth Century John M. Kinder In December 1948, journalist Charles V. Murphy published a lengthy report on the state of European zoos in Life Magazine.

Larry M. Logue and Peter Blanck. Heavy Laden
If the post-9/11 American home front has a “signature disorder” (and I’m not sure that it does), it would have to be veteran suicide. No other social pathology better reflects the deadly combination of mental anguish and communal indifference facing contemporary vets than self-murder. According to a recent White House briefing, roughly twenty U.S. veterans kill themselves every day—a rate one and a half times that of non-veteran adults. Since the…
Out of the Horrors of War
In May 2017, President Donald Trump’s Office of Management and Budget released A New Foundation for American Greatness, a 62-page budget proposal for fiscal year 2018. Critics, including some top Republicans, declared the plan to be “dead on arrival,” pointing to the budget’s deep cuts to Medicaid, food stamps, and farm subsidies. Somewhat overlooked in media fallout, however, were the Trump Administration’s designs to reform federal disability p…
The Life and Times of T. H. Gallaudet
Although rooted in the bottom-up tradition of social history, the intertwined fields of deaf history and disability history have always had their fair share of heroes—men and women who, whether motivated by political conviction or personal sentiment, have challenged the culture of ableism pervasive in the United States. In her gracefully written new biography, Edna Edith Sayers examines the life and times of one such figure, the educator and theo…
Marketing Disabled Manhood
This chapter examines the efforts of businesses to market masculinity to disabled American veterans. Beginning with the Civil War—a conflict that left nearly a million ex-servicemen with war wounds permanent injuries—it shows how commercial interests from prosthetics makers to car companies, railroads, meat packers, and cigarette manufacturers have sought to capitalize on disabled veterans’ fears of diminished manhood. Thus, in war’s wake, advert…
Zoo Animals and Modern War
This chapter explores what might be described as the cultural logistics of the wartime zoo: the organization of the zoo's symbolic and material resources to prepare for, participate in, and survive the ravages of modern warfare. Specifically, it analyzes three broad and overlapping roles thrust upon zoo animals since the emergence of modern war in the early nineteenth century. First, and perhaps most prominently, zoo animals have experienced war …
