Thank you all for reading, for your comments, for all the kindness and appreciation you’ve shown me this year. As 2020 took on its increasingly bubonic 1347 tinge, I tried as much as possible to keep the blog as unchanged in focus and consistency as it has been since I began posting daily 12 years ago. My wish was The History Blog could be for you (and me!) what Philosophy was for Boethius, who dealt with quite the lockdown of his own. I hope 2021 is a renaissance year for cultural heritage and that this blog, in its fractionally tiny way, can help support the revival of endeavours that have been laid waste in 2020.
Happy New Year! Now let’s the get hell out of this one.
Just want to chime in- you’re awesome, and I really appreciate your blog. In case you’re curious: if you had a podcast, I’d pay for it.
Thanks for all the years! The only webpage I’ve ever stuck with for so very long. I don’t have time to read it every day now that I have two little kids, but I catch up whenever I can!
Thank you for the very good website. i love reading it, for many years.
Start the new year by mobile adapting your website.
Adding my gratitude for the hours of enjoyment and learning that you have delivered. I started at the most recent posts and am now traveling back in time, hence the delay in this comment!
