The Little Ice Age : How Climate Made History 1300-1850 – Review
The author states, firmly and authoritatively, that “six kilometers is roughly ten miles.” (page xxi) If he or his fact checkers missed such an apparent error, it raises important questions of creditability for the place of the book. Because he jumps back and forth a few centries at a time within the bracketed years, it is difficult to follow. Lacking trust in the less known facts causes a bumpy widely read for me – lurching at the slightest question.
