A sweeping story, embracing developments in economics and science, philosophy and exploration, religion and politics. . . . Beautifully clear. John Lanchester, The New YorkerHailed as an arresting (Lawrence Klepp, New Criterion) account, Natures Mutiny chronicles the great climate crisis of the seventeenth century that totally transformed Europes social and political fabric. Bestselling historian Philipp Blom reveals how a new, radically altered Europe emerged out of the Little Ice Age that diminished crop yields across the continent, forcing thousands to flee starvation in the countryside to burgeoning urban centers, and even froze Londons Thames, upon which British citizens erected semipermanent frost fairs with bustling kiosks, taverns, and brothels. Highlighting how politics and culture also changed drastically, Blom evokes the eras most influential artists and thinkers who imagined groundbreaking worldviews to cope with environmental cataclysm.As we face a climate crisis of our own, Bloms prodigious synthesis delivers a sharplyfocused lesson for the twentyfirst century: the profound effects of just a few degrees of climate change can alter the course of civilization, forever (Laurence A. Marschall, Natural History). 40 blackandwhite illustrations
