Showing results for "Fever" in World

A gripping and wholly original account of the epic human tragedy that was the great Klondike Gold Rush of 1897-98.

In 1900, the U.S. sent three doctors to Cuba to discover how yellow fever was spread. There, they launched one of history's most controversial human studies. Compelling and terrifying, The American Plague depicts the story of yellow fever and its reign in this country - and in Africa, where even today it strikes thousands every year.

One reason for the growth and prosperity was trading routes from faraway lands. Ships came from Europe, the Caribbean, and even China, carrying cargos filled with lumber, tobacco, rice, and flour, as international trade expanded.
