The Climate Cure
Railroad companies advertised their station stops as havens for consumptives. Towns like Los Angeles, Denver and Pasadena grew as more health-seekers traveled west along the railroads. But promoters gave little thought to what would happen if climate was not a cure-all. Premieres February 10 on PBS American Experience.
