About This Item
Robert Hale, London 1983 Hardcover, with dust jacket VERY GOOD book in VERY GOOD unclipped dust jacket Oberammergau is a remote village in one of the dark valleys of the Bavarian Alps. This tiny hamlet fought desperately to hold back the dreaded plague that ravished all Europe in the seventeenth century. This book tells of the agonizing fear for his family that drove one of the villagers to breach the self-imposed isolation of the village from the outside world - and of the catastrophic consequences. It recalls the Vow taken 350 years ago by the inhabitants, to present the story of Christ's Passion if the Lord would remove the pestilence from their valley
