1.		RISING TIDE: THE GREAT MISSISSIPPI FLOOD OF 1927 AND HOW IT CHANGED AMERICA from Simon & Schuster Price: $4.99 Customer Review: The book was exactly as described. It arrived promptly and was well-packed. I'm a happy buyer.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		America's Forgotten Pandemic: The Influenza of 1918 from Cambridge University Press Price: $24.29 Customer Review: Like another reviewer here, I'd say that unless you're looking for tables and statistics, you should get "The Great Influenza" by John Barry instead of this book. Also like that reviewer, this is not a knock on Crosby at all, but a tribute to Barry. Barry's book really is an incredible work by any... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.		The Ghost Map: The Story of London's Most Terrifying Epidemic--and How It Changed Science, Cities, and the Modern World from Riverhead Trade Price: $10.20 Customer Review: This is wonderful account of scientific research on 19th century conducted not with high tech instruments but with an open and inquisitive mind and ground work. It eventually traces the cause of cholera to water when all the medics were sure at that time that diseases like this were transmitted by... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		Flu: The Story Of The Great Influenza Pandemic from Touchstone Price: $10.20 Customer Review: I loved this book, couldn't put it down. I learned a lot, not only about the 1918 flu, but about the science of virus research. The writing is very fluid. Kolata is on my short list of must-read authors.

5.		The Coming Plague: Newly Emerging Diseases in a World Out of Balance from Penguin (Non-Classics) Price: $13.60 Customer Review: This was an excellent book to learn about the emerging hemorrhagic viruses. It also talks about the interactions between humans and microbes and how humans induce their own diseases. What I did not like about this book was the long chapter about HIV/AIDS. It was long and outdated, since numerous... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		The Great Mortality: An Intimate History of the Black Death, the Most Devastating Plague of All Time (P.S.) from Harper Perennial Price: $10.17 Customer Review: _The Great Mortality_ is a synthesis of more specialized scholarly texts using some of the latest creative non-fiction techniques to make it more accessible for the general reader. Due to the nature of the sources, the Black Death is actually a very difficult subject matter to turn into a readable... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		The American Plague: The Untold Story of Yellow Fever, the Epidemic that Shaped Our History from Berkley Hardcover Price: $6.99 Customer Review: This is a very interesting true scientific mystery and good bio on Walter Reed.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		Polio: An American Story from Oxford University Press, USA Price: $11.53 Customer Review: This is a very interesting work on a topic my generation remembers with dread. If you were one of tens of millions of schoolchildren who were lined up in a cafeteria to await a sugarcube with a little dot on it--you'll want to read this.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		The Worst Hard Time: The Untold Story of Those Who Survived the Great American Dust Bowl (Edition 001) from Mariner Books Price: $10.17 Customer Review: Excellant. I heard about the "Dust Bowl" but never imagined what it really was and how terrible of time in our history. This book really opened my eyes. Hearing the stories from people that survived that time makes me fully appreciate how we have it today.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.		Purple Death : The Mysterious Flu of 1918 from Henry Holt and Co. (BYR) Price: $12.21 Customer Review: Ok, so I ordered this book because I'm an idiot and didn't read the product description and see that it was actually a children's book. But, that doesn't mean I didn't read it.... I actually loved the book. It's a quick read for an adult, but it's also a great book. The information is accurate and... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
