Bring Out Your Dead

Decided to begin reading book that I have presently in storage while waiting on the Library to come forth with the book I have on hold right now. I started "Bring Out Your Dead" by J.H. Powell. This is a non-fiction book about the Yellow Fever Plague in Philadelphia in 1793. I figured any book that begins with a preface that states "Do not read this book before eating, or in the midst of a sleepless night. For it is a revolting book, filled with disgusting details of a loathsome disease. An unfortunately, all the details are true." has a predisposition to be good. Fun Stuff
