Review by Horn Book Review

This simplified overview introduces three major bubonic plague pandemics: the Plague of Justinian, the Black Death, and the Modern Plague. Also discussed is the introduction of insecticides and antibiotics to help curtail the disease today. Other important, non-pandemic outbreaks of bubonic plague are confusingly interwoven in the eleven short sections, which are peppered with illustrations, photographs, charts, and sidebars.
