A surgeon turns detective on history's famous deaths, examining the illnesses and demises of kings, emperors, and celebrities with a physician's eye. These lively essays blend medicine, mystery, and biography. A witty and unusual read for anyone who enjoys history seen through the lens of the sickroom and the autopsy table.
