Does any one know where I can get a map of the total area devestated by the bubonic plague?
I have found maps telling me what major cities were devastated, where it came from and dates. But I need a detailed map, with the rough total area that was effected. If any one can suggest one thank you.
Such as population loss, dates of when it hit. All that. I already seem the Wikipedia map I want to know if there is another map out there.

lucky old Scotland not getting it until 1350
Sounds what you really need is something like this though:
http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dvbid/plague/world98.htm
except that is dated 1970 onwards…
This page does have some information about the plague originating in central asia and being spread by the new trade routes created by the mongol empire:

I think it is safe to assume that the whole of Europe was affected by the Bubonic Plague/Black Death. A search has revealed that wikipedia has a map at:- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Death#Plague_migration
