In The Kansas City Meningitis Epidemic, 1911-1913: Violent and Not Imagined, two physician authors present the dramatic medical history of a monstrous midwestern disease epidemic. The authors bring the events to startling life by skillfully drawing on original texts that evoke the resolute efforts of the Kansas City medical, nursing, and health department communities to care for the horribly stricken while inoculating the still well to prevent spread of the epidemic.
