 tal through this history of its bridges. In the late 1700s\, the first br
 idges\, now completely gone\, connected the new Federal City to the outsi
 de world. Throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries\, more and bi
 gger crossings arose to support industry\, allow the expansion of suburbs
 \, commemorate cultural and civic leaders\, and enhance the aesthetics of
  the District's waterfronts and parks. Although the city abandoned civic-
 minded\, commemorative\, and monumental constructions for utilitarian hig
 hway monoliths in the mid-twentieth century\, a recent renaissance has se
 en a welcome shift to walkability and beauty instead of brute utility. Us
 ing the city's bridges as an index of the times\, author and D.C. native

 63499\n\nJoin us at Lloyd House for a series of lectures featuring local 
 authors\, with the third featuring Jonathan S. Jones\, author of Opium Sl
 avery\, Civil War Veterans and America's First Opioid Crisis. \n\nDuring 
 the Civil War\, the utility and widespread availability of opium and morp
 hine made opiates essential to wartime medicine. After the war ended\, th
 ousands of ailing soldiers became addicted\, or "enslaved\," as nineteent
 h-century Americans phrased it. Veterans\, their families\, and communiti
 es struggled to cope with addiction's health and social consequences. Med
 ical and government authorities compounded veterans' suffering and imbued
  the epidemic with cultural meaning by branding addiction as a matter of 
 moral weakness\, unmanliness\, or mental infirmity. Framing addiction as 
 "opium slavery" limited the efficacy of care and left many veterans to su
 ffer needlessly for decades after the war ended.\n\nDrawing from veterans
 ' firsthand accounts as well as mental asylum and hospital records\, gove
 rnment and medical reports\, newspaper coverage of addiction\, and advert
 isements\, Jonathan S. Jones unearths the poorly understood stories of op
 iate-addicted Civil War veterans in unflinching detail\, illuminating the
  war's traumatic legacies. In doing so\, Jones provides critical historic
 al context for the modern opioid crisis\, which bears tragic resemblance 
 to that of the post-Civil War era.\n\nLocation: Lloyd House\, 220 N. Wash
