What form of anesthetic was used during field surgery in the civil war?
The only anesthetics they had during the Civil War were whiskey - you were supposed to get so drunk you couldn't feel a thing - and chloroform, which is inhaled. The chloroform killed the pain but didn't render you unconscious; Stonewall Jackson reported that he could hear them amputating his arm but not feel it. Because they didn't know how much chloroform to give a patient, some casualties died from chloroform poisoning.

So many amputations were performed because the lack antiseptics and an unsterilized surgical environment meant that infection from gangrene was a constant and frequent result of removing the bullets and shell fragments that immediately threatened the patients' lives. Once infection set in, there was no other way to prevent its spread. There were no antibiotics, either. The surgeries were performed without anesthetics, as well.
