The Monsters: Mary Shelley and the Curse of Frankenstein, by Dorothy and Thomas Hoobler. Very interesting account of the lives of the people connected with Frankenstein: Mary Shelley, Percy Bysshe Shelley, Lord Byron, John Polidori, and the woman who brought them together, Mary's step-sister Claire Clairmont, who was pregnant with Byron's child. Their lives would have been so different with modern medicine...

How many brilliant lives have been lost to disease and poverty?

What a talented group. Yes, modern medicine did not come soon enough.
