Tells the story of the turbulent, unpredictable, and often very cold years of modern European history, how this altered climate affected historical events, and what it means for climate change today.
Building on research that confirmed that the world endured a 500-year cold snap, renowned archaeologist Brian M. Fagan shows how the increasing cold influenced familiar events from Norse exploration to the settlement of North America to the Industrial Revolution. A fascinating book for anyone interested in history, climate, and how they interact.
