Helpful Score: 1
It started with an outbreak of cholera in 1854 London and chronicles the work of two men to solve the source of outbreak. It brings the personal accounts of the outbreaks consequences to life for the reader. I really enjoyed how Mr. Johnson wove the science of finding the cause with the human suffering and the attempts to stop it. Mr. Johnson uncovers the dirty world of waste disposal and the soiled underclass of this time period.
