Tragedy in London : plague and fire
Platt, Richard2012
Book
In 1665, London was a dangerous place in which to live. A plague had swept across London, and a quarter of the city's population died. A year later, tragedy struck London again and the Great Fire of London destroyed two-thirds of the city. Here, Richard Platt explores both events and how the city survived.
