Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Litil Boke the Whiche Traytied and Reherced Many Gode Thinges Necessaries for the Pestilence
The treatise here reproduced furnishes an account of the various remedies, and curative methods, adopted in the middle ages for checking the advance of the terrible foe. The mere recital of the more serious attacks to which Europe was subjected from the time of the Black Death to that of the compilation of the present treatise, a period of a little over a century, is sufficient to give one some idea of the devastation that must have been wrought in Europe by this dreadful scourge.
