DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Daniel Defoe was a young boy when the Great Plague of 1665 struck the city of London. Proceeding in roughly chronological order, the novel presents a fictionalized account of one Londoner's experiences as the disease takes its toll and law and order breaks down. While Defoe lived in London during the plague, he was only five years old at the time and likely based his story on the journals of his uncle Henry Foe.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Defoe's account of the bubonic plague that swept London in 1665 remains as vivid as it is harrowing. Based on Defoe's own childhood memories and prodigious research, A Journal of the Plague Year walks the line between fiction, history, and reportage. In meticulous and unsentimental detail it renders the daily life of a city under siege; the often gruesome medical precautions and practices of the time.
