Books by Mark Osborne Humphries

Mark Osborne Humphries uses patient records and official army files from Canadian, British and Australian archives to examine war trauma as it was experienced, treated and managed in the frontlines of the British and Canadian forces during the First World War.

In The Last Plague, Mark Osborne Humphries examines how federal epidemic disease management strategies developed before the First World War, arguing that the deadliest epidemic in Canadian history ultimately challenged traditional ideas about disease and public health governance.
