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

2.0

This author is incredibly thorough, and I think the right reader could easily rate this five stars. I learned a lot and it held my interest some of the time, but the depth was just too much for a layman like me who just wanted some more history and background on the epidemic. I did read the whole thing and I do have a lot of respect for this author; I just wasn't the right audience for this particular book.
