interesting account of how yellow fever has plagued countries for centuries, how the disease is transmitted, how it was ultimately discovered, and why it is still feared. As an aside, an impressive biography of Walter Reed, the doctor who headed the commission on yellow fever.

This book tells a fascinating account of the Blizzard of 1888. This book details the meteorological aspects of the disaster, and would be of special interest to people in that field.
