The Routes of Cholera, 1832, 1873

Description
Cholera had centuries earlier originated on the overcrowded banks of the Ganges River in India. In early 1831 the disease appeared in eastern Europe and moved steadily westward. In January 1832 it surfaced in England. Health officials in the United States then braced for an onslaught. In 1832, the disease initially spread inland from port cities—New York, Charleston, and New Orleans. In 1873, cholera spread down the Ohio and Mississippi River valleys.
