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.

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…

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!

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.

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.
