The Little Ice Age 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 today's global warming.
Building on research that has only recently confirmed that
the world endured a 500year cold snap, renowned
archaeologist Brian Fagan shows how the increasing cold
influenced familiar events from Norse exploration to the
settlement of North America to the Industrial Revolution.
This is a fascinating book for anyone interested in history,
climate, and how they interact.
