Bag om The Fever At Boa Vista In 1845-46, Unconnected With The Visit Of The Eclair To That Island

""The Fever at Boa Vista in 1845-46, Unconnected with the Visit of the Eclair to that Island"" is a historical book written by Gilbert King. The book is a detailed account of a deadly fever outbreak that occurred in the Cape Verde islands, particularly on the island of Boa Vista, in 1845-46. The author provides a comprehensive overview of the epidemic, including its causes, symptoms, and impact on the local population.The book also explores the response of the British Navy, which dispatched the HMS Eclair to the island to assist with the relief efforts. However, the author notes that the fever outbreak was not related to the visit of the Eclair, as was previously believed.Through meticulous research and analysis of historical records and first-hand accounts, King provides a vivid and compelling narrative of the epidemic and its aftermath. The book is an important contribution to the history of public health and disease control in the 19th century, as well as a fascinating glimpse into life on a remote island during a time of crisis.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
