About This Item

New York: Harper Perennial, 2005. Reprint. Trade Paperback. Near Fine. 5x0x8. Reprint. An exceptional copy. 2005 Trade Paperback. 364 pp. plus "P.S." section. "La moria grandissima began its terrible journey across the European and Asian continents in 1347, leaving unimaginable devastation in its wake. Five years later, twenty-five million people were dead, felled by the scourge that would come to be called the Black Death. The Great Mortality is the extraordinary epic account of the worst natural disaster in European history -- a drama of courage, cowardice, misery, madness, and sacrifice that brilliantly illuminates humankind's darkest days when an old world ended and a new world was born.
