Reader's note

Add a touch of sophistication to your bookshelf with this vintage edition of The Plague And I by Betty MacDonald. Tuberculosis. A terrifying word, as terrifying then as cancer is now. It meant entering a sanatorium for treatment, leaving her family, her children. And what if she did not recover? Hardly the basis for comedy, one would suppose. And one would be wrong. Betty MacDonald always had the ability to face up to adversity and heaven knows she had enough in her life so after the initial shock had passed, she proceeded to laugh at her illness, the other patients, the nurses, the doctors, and chiefly herself. Humor was her greatest medicine, right up to the day she left the sanatorium, cured. The perfect gift for all lovers of classic literature and rare, vintage books.
