Description
Thanks Ross for sending all HA Strong's notes (Ross/89/13/04) and offers to borrow books for him from Cambridge University Library. If there were malaria epidemics in Rome as early as HA Strong thinks the Roman Empire must have been expanding when malaria was endemic which contradicts the theory about Greece. He only considers fevers being malaria if they are described as being quartian or tertian which only happens in late material
