Justinian's Flea

Justinian's Flea: Plague, Empire, and the Birth of Europe by William Rosen

My review

rating: 2 of 5 stars
so, I finished this one up. It was the kind of book that didn't deliver what I thought it was selling. What I did learn though was about the fall of the Roman Empire, how bacteria works and the role of the plague in ending Roman dominance. I'd never read it again, but I have to say I have definitely gained knowledge.
