It has been scandalously suggested that my $25,000,000 fundraiser for monocycles for Ukraine (69th “Extortionist” Company) is a scam and that I am not really an SSO operative in Ukraine. I invite you to figure out the truth for yourself.

Great News. I was able to read Jonathan’s draft manuscript and it’s excellent. A ton of research and a strong narrative. Highly recommended, and I hope we can review it in the New Year. https://t.co/qg2nuAeerq

Jonathan Ware @ReassessHistory
So after years of challenges bringing new, diverse & muted history to market, I'm pleased to say the full manuscript and images are going into my publisher in a matter of days. 450,000 words of analysis & veteran voices over 2 vols. #HistoryWritersDay22 #WW2 #SWW #History https://t.co/LyfoXEYz4A

We’ve just published our book ‘Atlantikwall in kaart’. It’s in Dutch, but there’s much to see as well. 😊 It describes the complete story of the German Atlantic Wall as a defensive system through original war time maps. A thread on maps as a source. 🧵#HistoryWritersDay22

The irksome conditions under which paupers lived in the workhouse were actually designed to deter most of them from entering at all. It was a deterrent system – if they wouldn’t come in, the costs were kept down. And if they did come in, they must be truly desperate.
