A Distant Mirror: The Calamitous 14th Century   Barbara W. Tuchman
Tuchman is a good historian and a very good writer, especially for a historian, but I found this book uninteresting. Read 150 pages and quit, just didn’t care. The details about the plague were somewhat interesting, but I found my mind wandering through everything else. Maybe because it’s about France. Might pick it up again another time.
