Description: "Dylan Thomas went to New York in October 1953 to perform in Under Milk Wood. Three weeks later, he was dead. This fascinating book confronts painful facts about why he died." "Dylan suffered from a treatable illness but his fashionable New York doctor ignored the warning signs. David Thomas examines hospital data and the post-mortem report - included in the book - and shows that medical negligence was a factor. Fatal Neglect also investigates the conspiracy to protect those responsible."--Jacket.
