The Great Warming:Climate Change and the Rise and Fall of Civilizations, by Brian Fagan




Cool, quick read.


A climatological world history, with well-explained science and really well done scenes set in the different civilizations which were impacted by the warm period from about 1000 AD to 1300 AD.


I also just read another book by the same author, The Little Ice Age, which was also really enjoyable- readable, but still with a real backbone.
