Irish Fever: An Archaeology of Illness, Injury, and Healing in New York City, 1845-1875
Meredith Linn
In this profound study, Meredith B. Linn explores three kinds of afflictions - typhus fever, tuberculosis, and work-related injuries - that disproportionately affected Irish immigrants, tracing how existing medical ideas and technologies intersected with American prejudices to further conspire against this once culturally distinct group.
