And he, defiant, is asking for a storm.
As if there is peace in the storms!

"I wish I had more time to read history." If this is you, why not have a look at my Kindle list. My pieces are short, inexpensive and by no means superficial. Based on 40 years of studying and teaching. #History #EarlyModern #19Century #20Century #Kindle

Holiday reading for people interested in history but without the time or energy for a long book. School pupils and general readers mostly, I guess. #EarlyModern #19Century #20Century #History #Histed

Preparing for Prelims is a big thing in Scottish schools this month. For History, my list might have some useful material. @htenuk.bsky.social #EarlyModern #19Century #20Century #Scotland

A Lost Love, A Bruce family secret and trade negotiations that are about to go off the rails leave Lissa and Miles in dire straits, and Miles could pay the ultimate price when Retribution comes calling.

"Why did the Allies win the Second World War?" Well, this is the last one. 22 lectures that are short, cheap, packed with history, thought-provoking. Not a bad post-retirement project. @newtscotland.bsky.social #History #earlyModern #cotland #19century #20Century

A digital drawn illustration of a man with long curvy red hair, from his side face. He is smiling, while the rain falls over him, making his frac all wet. He is holding his hands infront of him, feeling the drops on his hands, and how they run throw it, until they fall.
He really hates cold, but, you know, when you are really happy, you may surprise yourself doing something unexpected!

Left book is The Conjure Woman from 1899 (cover featured an elderly Black man flanked by two rabbits). Right book is a 1973 illustrated adaptation with a purple cover featuring a rather terrifying (albeit impressive) conjure woman. The illustration resembles a shrunken head hanging by its hair.
After years of periodically looking online, I purchased a first edition 1899 copy of The Conjure Woman, by Charles Chesnutt (one of my favorite #19century authors). Bonus purchase was this 1973 illustrated adaptation.

Exam revision. If History is one of your subjects, have a look at this list. Brief but not superficial, and partly written with exam revision in mind. They cost about £1.00 each #EarlyModern #19Century #20Century #histed

The exam season is getting closer. If history is one of your subjects, you might find something useful in my list. Brief but not superficial, they were written with you in mind. #EarlyModern #19Century #20century #Scotland #historyeducation #History

Recycling in the #19century… In March 1824, the colonial and industrial affairs separated from the Dutch Ministry of Public Education, Industry, and Colonies. In July 1824, a frugal official continued to use the old letterpaper, merely crossing out the words "public education."
Half-term starts in Scotland today. If you want a little history reading that is brief but by no means superficial there might be something here for you. Worth a look. #Scotland #EarlyModern #19Century #20Century

They were for inkwells (ink storage containers)! Students would dip their pens in the inkwells for writing.
