The Great Plague: The Village That Saved Britain (2026)
Nestled deep within the Peak District, the secluded village of Eyam faced a devastating bout of bubonic plague during the 1660s. As the deadly disease swept through the tight-knit community, a young clergyman named William Mompesson made a bold and selfless choice: to quarantine the entire village to stop the infection from spreading. Historian Ruth Goodman brings to life the harrowing stories of the villagers who endured—and perished during—14 months of unimaginable suffering.
