Sentiments on Civil War prisoner exchanges and Confederate offers
A Confederate claim recalls 1864 efforts to trade medicines and prisoners with the United States, including offers to supply ten to fifteen thousand sick and wounded at Savannah without equivalents, and to transport them from prison camps. The account recounts exchanges, medical logistics, and opposition or skepticism from U.S. authorities and observers.
