Reviews

Kevin brown fills in the gap in an extremely well researched examination of how sailors were kept healthy at sea. Brown's expertise is reflected in previous works on the discovery of penicillin and the history of syphilis. In Poxed and Scurvied, he offers a vivid and detailed explanation of the centuries - old problem of sickness at sea and attempts to diagnose and overcome the maladies common to sailors. - The Historian, Phi Alpha Theta International Honor Society
