Description

Exposes the shocking story of the exploitation of human body parts during the Great War.

Tim Cook has spent over a decade investigating the hidden history of Canadian medical doctors harvesting the body parts of slain soldiers and transporting their brains, lungs, bones, and other tissue or bones to the Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) in London.

At least 1,200 individual Canadian body parts were removed from dead soldiers and sent to London, where they were stored, treated, and some put on display in exhibition galleries at the RCS.
