Global crisis: war, climate change and catastophe in the seventeenth century (1st edition.)

Few historians can claim to have undertaken historical analysis on as grand a scale as Geoffrey Parker in his 2013 work 'Global Crisis'.

It is a doorstop of a book that surveys the 'general crisis of the 17th century,' shows that it was experienced practically throughout the world, and was not merely a European phenomenon, and links it to the impact of climate change in the form of the advent of a cold period known as the 'Little Ice Age.'
