About this book
"The bubonic plague of 1348-1350 wiped out 40 percent of Europe’s population. Cantor’s engaging yet scholarly analysis of the plague’s devastation and its social and political consequences is fascinating. Want a tidbit? The royals who built their castles on the coveted land at the edge of a port really got zapped by those plague-carrying rats. Guaranteed--you will frequently exclaim aloud, and you will interrupt other people’s conversations to share everything you learn. A.C.S. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine [Published: FEB / MAR 03]" listen to the narrator https://www.audiofilemagazine.com/reviews/read/11676/
