Synopsis A Discourse on the Plague by : Richard Mead
"[...]Family; and, at his Return, gave to his Brother-in-law a Cloak he had brought with him: the Brother-in-law laying it upon his Bed, lost a little Child which lay with him, in one Day's Time; and two Days after, his Wife; himself following in seven or eight. The Parents of this unhappy Family, taking Possession of the Goods of the Deceased, underwent the same Fate. ALL this abundantly shews how inexcusable the foresaid Physicians in France are, in their opposing the[...]".

Synopsis Old Saint Paul's by : William Harrison Ainsworth
Excerpt from Old Saint Paul's: A Tale of the Plague and the Fire One night, at the latter end of April, 1665, the family of a citizen of London, carrying on an extensive business as a grocer in Wood Street, Cheapside, were assembled, according to custom, at prayer. The grocer's name was Stephen Bloundel. His family consisted of his wife, three sons, and two daughters. He had, moreover, an apprentice; an elderly female serving as cook; her son, a young man about five-and-twenty, filling the place of porter to the shop and general assistant; and a kitchen-maid. The whole household attended; for the worthy grocer, being a strict observer of his religious duties, as well as a rigid disciplinarian in other respects, suffered no one to be absent, on any plea whatever, except indisposition, from morning and evening devotions; and these were always performed at stated times. In fact, the establishment was conducted with the regularity of clock-work, it being the aim of its master not to pass a single hour of the day unprofitably. The ordinary prayers gone through, Stephen Bloundel offered up a long and fervent supplication to the most High for protection against the devouring pestilence with which the city was then scourged. He acknowledged that this terrible visitation had been justly brought upon it by the wickedness of its inhabitants; that they deserved their doom, dreadful though it was; that, like the dwellers in Jerusalem before it was given up to ruin and desolation, they "had mocked the messengers of God and despised his word;" that, in the language of the prophet, "they had refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears that they should not hear; yea, had made their heart like an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law and the words which the Lord of Hosts had sent in his spirit by the former prophets."

Synopsis The Plague Race by : Edward Marriott
An inspiring story of scientific endeavour and human bravery, The Plague Race is the story of one brave scientist who made an amazing discovery made in Hong Kong 100 years ago -- during an outbreak of the plague that threatened to decimate the island and, from there, the world. A tense and frightening race was run in appalling conditions by two rival scientists: Alexandre Yersin - rigorous, solitary, cerebral - and the suave Kitasako, unscrupulous, enigmatic, careless. Spiced with anecdotes, facts and chilling reconstructions, this book is an enthralling work of narrative history. And Marriott's investigations into plague in the modern world bring some disturbing facts to light . . . 'Beautifully written . . . Marriott's discourse encompasses empire, science and discovery as well as prejudice . . . The Plague Race is part history, part thesis, part thriller. As an investigation, it is all-entrancing' Observer
