‘The Great Influenza’ by John Barry is what we’re reading for book club this month.
Too bad you can’t remember the name of the book—one of my favorite areas of history is the country’s founding. I have an eclectic taste in eras of history—I read just about anything I can get my hands on about the Tudor period as well ;)
Found it.
American creation [triumphs and tragedies at the founding of the republic]
by Ellis, Joseph J.
Highly recommended.
