Marrin’s account of the flu pandemic that killed millions of people during World War I, plus modern-day efforts to identify that strain and prevent a recurrence, is given serious, steady narration by reader Frangione. His stentorian voice, along with his distinct enunciation and careful pace, underscores the gravity of the events. Listeners wishing to gain insight into the terrifying months of a flu pandemic during a world war will appreciate Frangione’s sober guidance.
