| Abstract: |
The article focuses on the philosopher John Dewey and the American Civil War. Topics include during the Civil War far more soldiers died from disease, exposure, and lack of immunities than from war wounds, and prodded by biographers interested in chronicling his life, Dewey wrote in 1933 about his father's service and seems the proud son. |
