 ?si=63499\n\nJoin us at Lloyd House for a series of lectures featuring lo
 cal authors\, with the third featuring Jonathan S. Jones\, author of Opiu
 m Slavery\, Civil War Veterans and America's First Opioid Crisis. \n\nDur
 ing the Civil War\, the utility and widespread availability of opium and 
 morphine made opiates essential to wartime medicine. After the war ended\
 , thousands of ailing soldiers became addicted\, or "enslaved\," as ninet
 eenth-century Americans phrased it. Veterans\, their families\, and commu
 nities struggled to cope with addiction's health and social consequences.
  Medical and government authorities compounded veterans' suffering and im
 bued 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 t
 o suffer needlessly for decades after the war ended.\n\nDrawing from vete
 rans' firsthand accounts as well as mental asylum and hospital records\, 
 government and medical reports\, newspaper coverage of addiction\, and ad
 vertisements\, Jonathan S. Jones unearths the poorly understood stories o
 f opiate-addicted Civil War veterans in unflinching detail\, illuminating
  the war's traumatic legacies. In doing so\, Jones provides critical hist
 orical context for the modern opioid crisis\, which bears tragic resembla
 nce to that of the post-Civil War era.\n\nLocation: Lloyd House\, 220 N.
