The Great Influenza: The Story of the Deadliest Pandemic in History by John M. Barry

2.0

Unfortunately there is a such thing as too much contextual history. This needs to be cut down and re-edited badly. I enjoyed parts of it, but it repeats itself a lot.

I got around halfway before dnfing, I really wanted to like this so I'm quite disappointed. I'll end up reading a wiki article or something else to not get bogged down with too much information.
