Episode description

We return to the plague narrative proper in this episode. Edward III sits victorious upon the medieval English throne fresh from victories in France. However, the Black Death cares not for kings or victories and marches towards England in the summer in 1348. In England, we get some of our best statistics for the plague due to the English tendency towards record-keeping.  If you are interested in another free ebook, check out the second installment of The Agency here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B085NDFT49
