Due Preparations For The Plague, As Well For Soul As Body is a book written by Daniel Defoe and first published in 1895. The book is a guide to preparing oneself for the bubonic plague, a deadly disease that ravaged Europe in the 17th century. Defoe draws on his own experiences of the plague, having lived through the outbreak in London in 1665. He provides practical advice on how to avoid infection, such as avoiding crowded places and keeping one's home clean and well-ventilated. He also discusses the importance of spiritual preparation, urging readers to repent of their sins and seek forgiveness before the disease strikes.The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the plague and its symptoms. The second part focuses on practical measures for preventing infection and caring for the sick. The third part is devoted to spiritual preparation and includes prayers and meditations for those facing the plague.Due Preparations For The Plague is a fascinating historical document that provides insight into the fears and anxieties of people living in a time of epidemic disease. It also offers practical advice that is still relevant today, as the world continues to face new outbreaks of infectious disease.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
