    Got it.

    Read it.

    GREAT AS ALWAYS

    There are two ways to be fooled, one is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe that which is true.

      Excellent issue, full of very interesting articles and information. I particularly enjoyed the articles on Reid in retirement, Abberline's Masonic career, and the Murder Houses of Ramsgate (the latter kept me up reading later than I should have!)

      Sim's article on the sweatshops of London was wonderful from a history buff's perspective, and I think the Archive feature is a very good one.
      I also find the book reviews very useful.

      Thanks, and keep up the good work!

              I also enjoyed the sweatshops article. Now I know why my great grandad left the West End Ryder's Court sweatshop he was born in & moved to British Honduras to start over as a grocer. He did embroidery as a youngster, must have been mind-numbing & nerve-wracking.

              From Voltaire writing in Diderot's Encyclopédie:
              "One demands of modern historians more details, better ascertained facts, precise dates, , more attention to customs, laws, commerce, agriculture, population."
