Have you ever wondered what you would have done in Claire Beauchamp Randall Fraser’s shoes? Could you have set a dislocated shoulder, removed a musket ball or treated typhus? Join us to discover the medical world of "Outlander" with historian Anne Clothier. From herbal remedies to surgical procedures, we will discuss medical cases from the books and the show, discuss the authenticity of their portrayals, and learn how the ailments and injuries would have been treated in the 18th century. Recipes for remedies you can try at home will also be shared. The presenter will display items and instruments from her collection of medical antiques.
