4.0 out of 5 stars The Sanitation Movement
Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2008
Verified Purchase
The Sanitation Movement in 18th, 19th, and 20th century American Public Health is described in detail. Some of the independent movements are left out. It is a long read which is boring and a little tedious at times. Overall an above average book on the subject matter describing the Sanitarians.
