Pale Rider: The Spanish Flu of 1918 and How It Changed the World by Laura Spinney
Pale Rider: The Spanish Flu of 1918 and How It Changed the World
4/5. Brief bites of chapters about the 1918 pandemic – its history, possible origins, biology, social aftermath. Extremely instructive. Could have been four times the length and still would have been fascinating. As it is, this is light in the sense of touching fleetingly upon many places and people and topics, not in subject matter.
