Myths! Lies! Secrets! Uncover the hidden truth about history' s pandemics, from the Black Death to COVID-19. Perfect for fans of I Survived! and Nathan Hale' s Hazardous Tales. During the Black Death in the 14th century, plague doctors wore creepy beaked masks filled with herbs. RIGHT? WRONG! Those masks were from a plague outbreak centuries later--and most doctors never wore anything like that at all!With a mix of sidebars, illustrations, photos, and graphic panels, acclaimed author Kate Messner delivers the whole truth about diseases like the bubonic plague, cholera, smallpox, tuberculosis, polio, influenza, and COVID-19. Discover the nonfiction series that smashes everything you thought you knew about history! Don' t miss History Smashers- The Mayflower, Women' s Right to Vote, Pearl Harbor, Titanic, and American Revolution.
