The great plague : a London girl's diary, 1665-1666 / Pamela Oldfield.
Includes events during the Great Fire of London(1666) which followed shortly after the Plague epidemic subsided.
"It seems that in the past week 700 people have died of the plague. . . One of the houses in the next street had a red cross painted on the door. Above the cross someone had chalked Lord Have Mercy Upon Us. . . ? A time of horror has come to London. As the bubonic plague ravages the city, mercilessly plucking up victims and filling the plague pits with corpses, 13-year-old Alice Payton records the outbreak in her diary. But when her own aunt is struck down with the disease, Anne is forced to make a decision that could change her life forever." --From the publisher.
