Also: There is a very interesting Video produced by Zenger Video called "Black Death". The format is a "CNN-like" news program which takes place during the time of the plague with on-the-spot interviews with people at the time. Very entertaining and educational! It also has discussion sheets (I receive no money for this plug!)
