The Black Death (Graphic Medieval History)

Teens love it.The graphic section dwells on the horrors of buboes and rats and fleas and vomit and bloodletting and lancing and flagellation.Horrible! But so memorable!Reasonably good map, good contextual information, excellent glossary, index

Spectacular resource, especially for low level readers. The images are great and really get kids interested!

Not much of a story. The drawings are not that great.Gross drawings that are just gross, not like horrific wonders, just bleah.If you want to see doctors piercing boils with needles this is the book for you.Really short with nothing that really develops of a tale.It's 48 pages long, but it really only feels about 10 pages of story. It is more just a series of events than a story.It's aimed at a younger audience like 10 year olds, but at the age it is directed at, I wouldn't recommend it.
