BBC History Revealed Magazine  |  January 2018
Imagine, if you can, a mystery bug appearing out of
nowhere – one with no cure or treatment and that kills
nearly everyone infected in just a matter of days. !en
consider one-in-three people in Britain being struck
down by it over the course of two years. Unthinkable,
isn’t it? And yet that’s exactly what happened halfway
through the 14th century. Where did this killer plague,
Black Death, come from? How did it spread? And what was it like to live
through these unutterable days? We reveal all from page 28.
But don’t worry, it’s not all doom and gloom to see in the new year,
as we celebrate some of history’s greatest pioneers this issue, from the
extraordinary salvagers of Henry VIII’s favourite ship, the Mary Rose (p46",
to those magnificent men who took their flying machines into the skies
(p56", to the remarkable women whose mathematical genius allowed the
US to send men to the Moon (p69".
We’ve also given the magazine a bit of a spring clean, taking all your
comments on board, and introduced a few new regular features. I hope you
like what we’ve done – do write in and let us know. Happy new Year!
