Boils, religion, and quarantines: Living with the Black Death in the Middle Ages

The Black Death, also known as the bubonic plague, was the worst pandemic in history. The Black Death was almost always fatal, and it took hundreds of years for populations to bounce back. It claimed millions of lives and set the stage for pandemic responses that are still in use today.

This audiobook offers a compelling and comprehensive examination of this period and talks about what we’ve learned from such a horrific disease. Explore interesting facts about this period, and uncover some of the most common misconceptions about one of the most devastating periods in history.

In this audiobook, you’ll learn about the following:

• Where the Black Death is thought to have come from • How the disease spread • How people dealt with the disease • What role religion played in the Black Death • How the pandemic eventually ended • Scientific advancements we’ve made since that time • The consequences of the Black Death throughout history • And so much more!
