Excerpt from Epidemics Resulting From WarsThe other parts of the history of war pestilences are set forth in a more general way, for an exhaustive treatment of them would have necessitated several years of preliminary work, which the writer in the short time at his disposal was unable to undertake.The writer has drawn as much as possible from original sources, this applies at least to the pestilences of the Napoleonic Period, and to the epidemic of small-pox after the franco-german War. It would have been impossible to deal with the other wars in the same way without consuming considerable time. From the bibliographies it will appear what sources the author has consulted rarely are quotations given from works which he has not seen, and in such cases it is indicated whence they were taken.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
