The Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Washington, DC, and its predecessor, Walter Reed General Hospital, have treated millions of active and retired personnel from every branch of the military. This collection of photographs and text pays tribute to the center's legacy."
Journal of the History of Medicine, June 2010
"The structure of the book is straightforward, with each of its ten chapters covering sequential decades of the century-long existence of WRAMC." . . . "Casual readers who might wish a "coffee table" book as a souvenir of the past and present life and times of Walter Reed hospital will not be disappointed. Images full of human interest, celebrity largesse, presidential power, the sacrifices of ordinary hometown doughboys and "GIs", medical and surgical accomplishment, and institutional expansion abound. For many "insiders" who were past or current staffers, this book will spark memories; for those on the "outside" it affords glimpses into the interworkings of a longstanding and important American institution."
