Title: Just plain bad.
Product review: Disconnected ramblings sprinkled with historical trivia may be fascinating to listen to in a freshmen lecture hall, but such a style fails miserably in book form. For all his obviously detailed knowledge of the subject, the author fails to coherently string together a premise, supporting evidence, or a conclusion. I suppose this is the type of book one writes when one really doesn't have anything to say on a topic.Sort-of based on the happenings surrounding the Black Death, this book doesn't ever come to any conclusions about the material presented - either original or in support of others'. The author plays fast and loose with historical facts and renders large doses of his highly personalized opinion on a variety of issues.Don't bother picking this one up. This is one of those books that should never have been printed in the first place.
