It's 200 years since the death of Caroline of Brunswick, 'the injured Queen of England'. 👑 Fascinated by the #RegencyEra? 🎉 For #GlosHistFest21 we're delighted to welcome @IanJamesFM, author of The Time Traveller’s Guide To Regency Britain 📘 Book at gloucesterhistoryfestival.co.uk/events/ian-mor…
Please would any Fellows of the Royal Historical Society consider voting for me in the elections for Council. I see I am the only non-academic among the 9 candidates & Council is currently entirely academics. We need representation of other approaches and uses of history.
New suite of covers for the Time Travellers Guides series unveiled! On kindle editions now - will be the new covers for the paperbacks from Autumn 2021.
This is fascinating - 9-14% medieval English men and women likely to have suffered from cancer at the time of death. Far more than previously thought. Pity the time frame is not more specific (but one can't have everything). thetimes.co.uk/article/bone-s…
Dr Ian Mortimer, author of The Time Traveller’s Guides, will be joining us for a lunchtime interview on February 24th. Book now to avoid disappointment! nicholaspriory.com/events/ianmort… #Exeter #Devon @TimeTravGuide
Wish I could say yes. But I don't know, sorry. It's with my agent, who is discussing the matter with prospective publishers. Cross fingers - for us both!
Calling all #Bridgerton fans📣 . Discover more about the delicious Regency period - a time of exuberance, thrills, frills and unchecked bad behaviour 😉 Zoom talk 18/3 by @IanJamesFM inspired by his brilliant @TimeTravGuide @DevonHeritage @Barum_Athena
Shocking. When I criticise Jonathan Sumption as a historian, it's often because he doesn't seem to like, or empathise with, the people he writes about. He sits in arrogant judement on them all. He also appears to apply the same lack of empathy to living people.

I don't know how long the Waterstones sale is going on for but the new Time Traveller's Guide to Regency Britain is still on sale at half price - £10. waterstones.com/book/the-time-…
For anyone in the UK keen to get their hands on a copy of the new Time Traveller's Guide to Regency Britain, it is currently available through Waterstones at the discount price of £10. Also available through Amazon (but their price is more erratic). waterstones.com/book/the-time-…
9:15 and I'm about to start listening to my third Beethoven symphony of the morning, to celebrate his 250th birthday. And the 245th birthday of Jane Austen. Both are key characters in my Time Traveller's Guide to Regency Britain.
Thanks. I found it hugely thought-provoking, contrasting medieval rich and poor (free and unfree) with the rich and poor of the Industrial Revolution. I'd recommend every medievalist study the early 19th century, for a different perspective on inequality.

They are all on my to read next list. Really fascinating series 📚.
@JosephineFormby 'The past is a foreign country; this is your guidebook' Hurry up Josephine you're running out of time! The Restoration next and on to Regency Britain. Remember to follow the guides and whatever you do, don't touch anything ... @TimeTravGuide @IanJamesFM #goodreads
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the past week wallowing in a period of history (Regency Britain) that I haven’t previously read a lot about. It’s a great addition to the series - looking forward to the next one. @TimeTravGuide @IanJamesFM
@lymanstoneky Yes, we should try to build 0-12 history curricula based on well-written yet instructive social histories like Ian Mortimer's @TimeTravGuide series.
@TimeTravGuide And I just started Regency last night🙂
Finished the wonderfully immersive @TimeTravGuide to Regency Britain. Love these books and as someone who studied history (many, many years ago) I am awed by the breadth and depth of @IanJamesFM research. I always do the audiobook and his reading was superb. What’s the next one?
So very young 😢
In 1802, William Appleton is sentenced to be transported to Australia for stealing a purse containing 37 pennies and 47 halfpennies from a milkman's cart in London. He survives the 8 months at sea and lands in Port Philip on 4 October 1803. He is just 9 years old when sentenced.
Look out!
From the medieval TTG, p.57: 'Men over the age of 60 are often seen as something of an embarrassment, no longer masculine and unable to fulfil the dominant male role in society. Women on the other hand are seen as having lost nothing in strength but having gained much in wisdom.'
It’s such a brilliant book!

A book to look forward to....Yay.
What do you find at the end of a rainbow? A crock of gold? Or a newly published copy of the Time Traveller's Guide to Regency Britain? Oh, look...
@TimeTravGuide My copy arrived today and it's next on the to be read pile. I know little of the period except what I learnt from Blackadder....
Who doesn't need a sofa in their bathroom and an armchair in their bathroom? 🤷🏼♀️ I am exceedingly jealous of those of you who can get your hands on this book in two days!
The bathroom at Colworth House in 1816 has a bath, a fire, a carpet, a sofa, an armchair, a mahogany cupboard for a chamber pot, a screen behind which to hide your modesty, and 8 gilt-framed paintings for you to admire as you wallow in hot water. (Just 2 days to publication.)
Coffee. The Regency’s drug of choice.
Between 1790 and 1830 coffee consumption in the UK increases by 600 percent. That's much more than opium, which officially goes up from 7 tons per year to 10 tons.
@IanJamesFM @TimeTravGuide Congratulations!
With just one week to go until my Time Traveller's Guide to Regency Britain is published in the UK and Commonwealth (in hardback, ebook and audiobook), here is a clip of me in reading a passage from the envoi, touching on 'the soul of history'.
