The Great Famine: Northern Europe in the Early Fourteenth Century Paperback - 1998
by William Chester Jordan
First line
HASH(0x1111d1a0)
From the rear cover
"Pestilence and War have had their historians. Famine now has its own with this brilliantly written masterpiece of historical anthropology."--Jacques Le Goff
"Superb detective work, as all good historical research should be, it is well organized, fast moving, and above all else, persuasive. Jordan spins a horrifying tale, dealing, in turn, with the nature of the calamity and how it affected the nobility, peasants, and townfolk--starvation, disease, displacement, and death.... Yes, this is true scholarship, but also a riveting tale as well."--The Virginia Quarterly Review

World History. 3rd Edition. 1998. 317pp with index, bibliograhy, and notes.
