It's a long time coming, folks, but a NEW EPISODE is finally out. Please forgive the lengthy absence. My spring has been busy with extended hospital stays for my kid and wrapping up another school year, but I may be back for the long haul once again.
This is EPISODE 210: "Many Wept For Joy" and this episode sees, at long last, the arrival of the crusaders before the mighty walls of Jerusalem.

@BookwormBean 🙏Much obliged, my friend.
@JamesLucasIT Here’s a whole episode focusing on its history and its role, specifically, in the life of Pope Gregory VII. On my bucket list of places to see!

@WheelPodcast currently listening episode 48 & being from the north (Yorkshire) we still refer to the south as soft - nothing has changed
Some things transcend time: Yorkshire pride, bad weather, and calling the South soft. Glad episode 48 passed northern inspection 😄
Thanks for listening, my friend! As soon as I can pull together the next episode or two, we’re heading back to England to check in on Henry Beauclerc.
@athenaeumbc I have nightmares about Middlemarch from college. Not saying it’s not on of the greats but it couldn’t possibly scratch the Top 50.
If you enjoy medieval history, you're going to want to read what Feigned Flight is publishing.

He carried a Saint Joan of Arc banner and Norman flags. He won the fight.
@TheGreatB00ks “The Destructors” by Graham Greene. Without question, this one stacks up against most great novels. I must’ve read it a hundred times.

@BookNoteApp By far, this one.
@BookNoteApp Honorable mention
@the_book_land Going for something lighter than medieval manuscripts this weekend…
@HumbleFlow Apart from the hyperbole, I second this. This book will help undo the historical, cultural, and intellectual damage public schooling and pop culture has wrought about our shared Western past.
