From Central Asia the plague swept through Europe, leaving millions of dead in its wake. Between a quarter and a third of Europe's population died. In England the population fell from nearly six million to just over three million. The Black Death was the greatest demographic disaster in European history. Sean Martin looks at the origins of the disease and traces its terrible march through Europe from the Italian cities to the far-flung corners of Scandinavia.Black DeathEuropeCommunicable diseasesEuropeEuropeSocial conditionsTo 1492Black DeathCommunicable diseases614.573209023616.9232Martin Sean858153MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910825245503321The black death2600531UNINA
