About this listen

Uncover the true story of America's first plague epidemic in 1900 in this book is perfect to share with young listeners looking for a historical perspective of the Covid-19/Coronavirus pandemic that recently gripped the world.

In March 1900, San Francisco's health department investigated a strange and horrible death in Chinatown. A man had died of bubonic plague, one of the world's deadliest diseases. But how could that be possible?

Acclaimed author and scientific expert Gail Jarrow brings the history of a medical mystery to life in vivid and exciting detail for young listeners. She spotlights the public health doctors who desperately fought to end it, the political leaders who tried to keep it hidden, and the brave scientists who uncovered the plague's secrets.
