Ah
yes. The Black Plague. Sure many of you have heard of it.
How it spread through cities in Europe during the Middle Ages. But
do you really know what it was like for those who caught it? Did
you know that one in three Londoners died from the plague? And that
it happened over and over again -- not just one time? Narayan gives
all the gory details of the plague and how it affected the city of London
from 1348 through the 1600s. And you'll also find out about other
diseases that struck the city through the years. Told in a humorous
way, this book is sure to add to your understanding of London history. |
