Pellagra: An American Problem is a non-fiction book written by George McCallum Niles and published in 1912. The book sheds light on the epidemic of pellagra, a disease caused by a deficiency of niacin, which was prevalent in the United States during the early 20th century. The author provides a comprehensive account of the disease, its symptoms, and its causes, as well as the social and economic factors that contributed to its spread. Niles also discusses the efforts made by public health officials and medical professionals to combat the disease, including the use of dietary interventions and the development of new treatments. The book is an important historical document that provides insight into the public health challenges faced by early 20th century America, and the efforts made to address them. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of medicine, public health, and social welfare.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
