La peste nera

Il vento tendeva le vele delle galee genovesi che dalla Crimea stavano entrando nel porto di Messina. Erano le benvenute. Portavano mercanzie da ogni parte del mondo conosciuto, sete, spezie e oggetti preziosi. Quando se ne andarono, cacciate dai messinesi, era ormai troppo tardi. La Grande Morte, la Peste Nera, aveva già fatto le prime vittime e il contagio si stava diffondendo a gran velocità. Era l'ottobre del 1347 e quello era l'inizio del più devastante disastro naturale della storia dell'umanità. Scrupolosa e ricca di aneddoti, questa è la storia della terribile epidemia che falcidiò un terzo della popolazione europea. E creò un mondo nuovo.

Focusing on the extraordinary experiences of Raymond Rush, this book recounts the harrowing D-Day landing at Sword Beach, where he was the sole survivor of his company. As a front-line soldier, he played a crucial role in battling the Third Reich, witnessing the loss of his comrades.
