Not as dry as some of the disease books I've read. When I think of catastrophic diseases, yellow fever just never comes to mind, but it had a huge impact on the United States back in the late 1700s and early 1800s. This book discussed the disease, its impact, and the struggle to discover how it was spread and how best to contain it. Very interesting.
