Gilbert King

""The Fever at Boa Vista in 1845-46, Unconnected with the Visit of the Eclair to that Island"" is a historical account written by Gilbert King. The book recounts the outbreak of a deadly fever that occurred on the island of Boa Vista in Cape Verde in 1845-46. The fever claimed the lives of many people on the island, and the book provides a detailed description of the symptoms and the efforts made to contain the disease.Contrary to popular belief, the fever was not caused by the visit of the British naval vessel Eclair to the island, as was initially thought. The book provides evidence to support this claim and sheds light on the true cause of the fever.In addition to the medical aspects of the outbreak, the book also explores the social and economic impact of the disease on the island's population. It delves into the response of the local government and the measures taken to prevent the spread of the fever.Overall, ""The Fever at Boa Vista in 1845-46, Unconnected with the Visit of the Eclair to that Island"" is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of disease outbreaks and the impact they have on society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
