Synopsis
In 1991, Dr. Richard Selzer contracted Legionnaire's disease, lapsed into a coma, and began a painful journey to a place where there was "more than a hint of death." This book recounts that mysterious, dramatic journey--a trip to the underworld of disease, a place where death is constantly close.
