Excerpt from Some Lost Works of Cotton Mather Mather's first move in his campaign for inoculation was to frame an Address to the Physicians of Boston, exhorting them to meet and pass judgment on the novel practice. The Address was dated June 6, It was circulated in manuscript among the doctors, not published, but most Of it soon got into print, as we shall see presently, and the residue (except for a few sentences) is probably still extant in the author's own handwriting.

The Speckled Monster tells the dramatic story of two parents who dared to fight back against smallpox. After barely surviving the agony of smallpox themselves, they flouted eighteenth-century medicine by borrowing folk knowledge from African slaves and Eastern women in frantic bids to protect their children. From their heroic struggles stems the modern science of immunology as well as the vaccinations that remain our only hope should the disease ever be unleashed again. Jennifer Lee Carrell transports readers back to the early eighteenth century to tell the tales of Lady Mary Wortley Montagu and Dr. Zabdiel Boylston, two iconoclastic figures who helped save London and Boston from the deadliest disease mankind has known.
