Poor diet, inadequate sanitation and sometimes a lack of basic medical care caused such diseases as dysentery, scurvy, typhus, smallpox and others to decimate the ranks. Scurvy was a major problem for both the British and American navies, while venereal diseases proved to be a particularly vexing problem in New York. Respiratory diseases, scabies and other illnesses left nearly 4,000 colonial troops unable to fight when George Washington's troops broke camp at Valley Forge in June 1778. From a physician's perspective, this is a unique history of the American Revolution and how diseases impacted the execution of the war effort. The medical histories of Washington and King George I are also provided.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49724518564113,"sku":"CIN0805420991G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50431804342545,"sku":"CIN0805420991VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50508393152785,"sku":"CIN0805420991A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0805420991.jpg?v=1750849627"},{"product_id":"home-run-feud-book-clair-bee-9780805421248","title":"Home Run Feud","description":"The author explores this tradition in depth and defines it with a breadth of vision, a dynamic vigor and freedom rarely paralleled today.His method, flexible, generous, humane in the best sense of the word, eschews pedantry, dogma, useless theorizing and scholastic argumentation.--The New York Times Book Review. I wish to make it clear that The Gates of Horn represents an outstanding critical accomplishment.--Saturday Review. In the Odyssey, Homer describes two gates of the imagination: one of ivory through which fictitious dreams pass, and the other of horn, through which nothing but the truth may pass. Realism is the type of literature that passes through the horn, and in this significant study of the genre Levin examines a major form of Realism--the French novel--and focuses on five of its masters--Stendahl, Balzac, Flaubert, Zola, and Proust. Now available in paperback, Levin's study is a veritable reconstruction of the artistic and intellectual life of a nation.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50033169858833,"sku":"CIN0805421246G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50307017834769,"sku":"CIN0805421246VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":52928678920465,"sku":"CIN0805421246A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0805421246.jpg?v=1751011847"},{"product_id":"comeback-cagers-book-clair-bee-9780805421002","title":"Comeback Cagers","description":"What is the origin of the world and of life itself? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Did a series of accidents and evolution bring about the world as we know it? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Or is there a design and purpose behind it all? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e And if there is a design, is there an ultimate designer? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e A number of years ago, John Clayton, a second-generation atheist and respected scientist and teacher, set out to disprove the Bible from a scientific point of view.

Although other books have addressed their individual works, this is the first to make the connection between the two. The author provides a solid critical examination of Baldwin's and Achebe's writings and argues that there exists a remarkable similarity of thought in the struggle against colonialism in Africa and slavery and racism in America. This book gives refreshingly new insight into the works of two of the great black writers of our century and will be beneficial to students of African and Afro-American literature, as well as to the general public.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50292612202769,"sku":"CIN0805421254G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50743707631889,"sku":"CIN0805421254A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51330105114897,"sku":"CIN0805421254VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0805421254.jpg?v=1751329648"},{"product_id":"fiery-fullback-book-clair-bee-9780805424188","title":"Fiery Fullback","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50366107091217,"sku":"CIN0805424180G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51702399631633,"sku":"CIN0805424180VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0805424180.jpg?v=1751233757"},{"product_id":"strike-three-book-clair-bee-9781479431380","title":"Strike Three","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50384500195601,"sku":"CIN1479431389VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1479431389.jpg?v=1751178985"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/chip-hilton-sports-book-series.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
