Random House Trade Paperbacks, 2004. Paperback. New. Riveting tale of San Francisco in 1900 dealing with the bubonic plague. Softcover in illustrated wraps. Includes bibliography, academic notes and an index. 276 pp. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. The veteran Wall Street Journal science reporter Marilyn Chase's fascinating account of an outbreak of bubonic plague in late Victorian San Francisco is a real-life thriller that resonates in today's headlines. The Barbary Plague transports us to the Gold Rush boomtown in 1900, at the end of the city's Gilded Age. With a deep understanding of the effects on public health of politics, race, and geography, Chase shows how one city triumphed over perhaps the most frightening and deadly of all scourges.
