ISBN10: 0684857359, ISBN13: 9780684857350, [publisher: Free Press, New York [u.a.]] Hardcover First Edition 245 S. with Ill. Inside very clean. Much of what we know about the greatest medical disaster ever, the Black Plague of the 14th century, is wrong. The details of the Plague etched in the minds of terrified schoolchildren - the hideous black welts, the high fever, and the final, awful end by respiratory failure - are more or less accurate. But what the Plague really was, and how it made history, remain shrouded in a haze of myths. This book presents a microcosmic view of the Plague in England (and on the continent), telling the stories of the men and women on the 14th century, from peasant to priest, and from merchant to king. .
