Audio Book Summary

In this New York Times best-seller, Norman F. Cantor digs through the medical evidence and concludes that the Black Death of the 14th century was probably two diseases at once: bubonic plague and anthrax. He shows how these diseases affected the masses as well as individuals, and thus altered history. Concise, informative, and touched with dark humor, this book is a startlingly fresh view of a frightening epidemic.

    Such an all round account as to be both instructive and entertaining. Many references to other Librivox books are made. These include Samuel Pepyes, Daniel Defoe, in reference to the Great Plague. A jolly good read.
