| (Pamphlet, 1993) Lyme disease is an illness caused by bacteria transmitted through the bite of a tick, and often features a bull’s-eye rash. Named after the Lyme, Connecticut location of some early cases, the disease has become endemic throughout all of New Jersey. Prepared by Dr. Leonard H. Sigel, the manual above is an early guide for New Jersey clinicians, and diagnosis and treatment of Lyme disease is still debated today. (Special Collections, George F.
