Book
The history of infectious diseases and the impact of epidemics on history, society, folklore and the lives of several well-known people is more than fascinating. A selection of these stories is presented in this book, illustrated with elements used in thematic philately: stamps, stamp booklets and miniature sheets, postal stationery, postmarks, labels and other signs resulting from the handling of mail. Using this material surprisingly uncovers historical details, which are rarely mentioned in the traditional literature on the subject. «
