post regularly via the blog Unusual Historicals: http://unusualhistoricals.blogspot.com/

message 117: by Jim (new)

Jim (jimmaclachlan) That was interesting, Debra. I thought it was going to be more about the confusion in terminology between English, English-American, & Western-American terminology, but it was even older & stranger than that. Thanks.

message 134: by Janet (new)

Janet Wertman | 4 comments Although I tend to concentrate on an "On-this-day" format, I've gotten really into letters from the Tudor period. In this blog post, I talk about a letter that seven-year-old Henry Fitzroy wrote to his father, Henry VIII (spoiler alert: on the 31st, I will add the letter a much more confident EIGHT year old Fitzroy wrote asking for a harness for his horse....)
