Brief dated entries are preceded by a substantial introduction (46 pages) detailing the history of public health in the US and explaining basics of the immune system, public health organization in the US, and measuring the success of public health policies.

Chronology of Public Health in the United States
Ordered this on inter-library loan after reading several excerpts from it in The Lady of Milkweed Manor. Not what you'd call a page turner, but a really interesting look at the progression of infant feeding from wet nursing to formula with a few diversions along the way about society's changing views on nature versus nurture, the role of the physician in child-rearing decisions, and the moral implications of allowing an infant to "fail to thrive" without human milk.
