This dataset reformats data from the dataset Nightingale
in the
HistData package. For a given cause of death, D, annual rates
per 1000 are calculated as 12 * 1000 * D / Army, rounded to 1 decimal.
The two panels of Nightingale's Coxcomb correspond to dates before and after March 1855.
The data were obtained from:
Pearson, M. and Short, I. (2007). Understanding Uncertainty: Mathematics of the Coxcomb. http://understandinguncertainty.org/node/214.
