In the Wake of the Plague: The Black Death and the World It Made (Unabridged)

Much of what we know about the greatest medical disaster ever, the Black Plague of the fourteenth 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.

Norman Cantor, the premier historian of the Middle Ages, draws together the most recent scientific discoveries and groundbreaking historical research to pierce the mist and tell the story of the Black Death afresh, as a gripping, intimate narrative.

Why I Recommend Audible by Alan Twigg

Audible (an Amazon.com company) is the world's leading online audio-book provider. Audible is responsible for supplying audio content to Apple's ITunes service. I have been listening, enjoying and creating audio books for many years. With the arrival of the internet and portable digital devices, audio-books began to become availalbe for download.

Having tried most of the other download services myself, I finally came to the conclusion that Audible offers the best and most reliable service. Whether you are using an IPod, IPhone, mobile phone, Dune or one of the many other MP3 players availalbe, Audilbe makes downloading great quality audio content easy and umcomplicated.


In addition to this, Audible also boasts the most comprehensive collection of audio books anywhere. Depending on the promotion currently on offer, you can download any audiobook of your choice for free (including almost certainly the title on this page, too). This link will take you to Audible...
