Maps Inwards The Historic Menstruation Of Cholera

Twenty Years earlier John Snow famously mapped the locations of cholera victims inwards Broad Street, London, Robert Baker plotted the deaths of cholera victims inwards Leeds.

Maps inwards the Age of Cholera is a even map based around Robert Baker's 'Sanitary Map of the Town of Leeds' exploring the 1832 cholera epidemic inwards the Yorkshire town. Baker never made the link betwixt cholera as well as contaminated water. However, inwards his map as well as inwards the accompanying written report to the Leeds Board of Health, Baker noted that "the affliction was worst inwards those parts of the town where in that place is oftentimes an entire desire of sewage, drainage as well as paving".

The map itself uses this Leaflet Story Map plug-in. The Leaflet Story Map library uses jQuery to practise a scroll driven even map. The map tiles system for Robert Baker's 1832 'Sanitary Map of the Town of Leeds' comes from Wikimaps Warper.
