Fever 1793

I did not know anything about the Yellow Fever outbreak before reading this book. This book was an exceptional telling of how the fever ripped through Philadelphia and what surviving the fever may have been like, both for adults, who may have been strong workers but became weak with side effects after infection, and children who may have been left orphaned or who couldn't find their parents after surviving. It was a good story regarding epidemiology and how our knowledge evolves as we receive more information the longer we study infection.
