"And the band played on"
An amazingly meticulously researched piece of work that outlines the spread of the AIDS virus from the late 1970's onwards.
Author Randy Shilts was a journalist who wrote a "Gay beat" for The San Francisco Chronicle in the eighties. Sadly he was diagnosed HIV positive in 1987 and died in 1994.
I love reading medical books and also social history topics - this is a great mix of both.
