This was a wonderful book! The story of 1854 London and the Cholera epidemic. It was engaging from the very first page and continued till the end. The author did a beautiful job of weaving historical facts and information of the time into the story. This making it real to all who read it. Excellent at bringing history into a story where you are learning and exploring.
