@ZwhiteHistory Another talking political head whose ideas are not grounded in a clear understanding of the university journey. He seeks attention, only. Why should any pay attention to him?

An individual with no knowledge of the University education system professing to know what is/is not valuable from time spent at uni (such as how it helps you to see through dog whistle politics, populism, & flag shagging purely to gain attention)

@ZwhiteHistory It comes down to who is the most essential. Berthier makes the entire engine run.

Berthier, Ney or Soult?

Absolutely delighted, and slightly terrified, to have been accepted by @NRWGCharity to deliver my next paper at the War and Peace conference in September. A very different topic from last time I’ll be discussing the impact Living History can have on Napoleonic research.
English
This beauty has returned for the museum for our D-Day exhibition. Any guesses what it is?

Has someone checked on this person? Cos I’m pretty sure they are not okay…

Reminder that there is still a week to send in your abstracts for the must-attend conference of 2024 - the CfP has been extended to allow time for bursary applications!
We’d love to see you in York in September for all things Napoleonic! Ticket details will also appear soon.

@RMB_History Your wisdom is showing. It will all come together for you. Nevertheless, I am still amazed at what I don't know. Maybe that's the point: learning to differentiate our true areas of expertise from all the other areas in which we have but superficial knowledge.

Mid-PhD: why do I know nothing?

Pleased to say that as of today I am back in employment - albeit part-time for now - as Museums and Heritage Coordinator with the Army Museums Ogilby Trust (@armymuseumsuk). I'll be visiting and working with regimental museums around the UK, and reporting back on my travels.

@SABrown1961 I very much like your data. I have explored similar things. Might I impose on you for this compiled data and source work?
Best,

Very excited that I’m going to be in the US for the Consortium of the Revolutionary Era Conference. I’ll give my first paper on discipline in the East India Company Army, AND be heading a roundtable with @lureynol & @AngersSeverine on popular perception of the Napoleonic era 🇺🇸

@mcribbHistory Drive on, my friend. Wondrous things are on the horizon.

This might be one of the biggest "adventures" I have undertaken.
Alone, with currently nowhere to live (yet).
It is based out of Angus🏴, just along the coast from a part of the world I have stayed several times.
With stunning scenery & history I AM excited.

LIFE UPDATE:
Due to my long term relationship unfortunately ending this year (still amicable), I have recently accepted a new job...
IN SCOTLAND, with the National Trust for Scotland.
A dream for me to move to a beautiful part of the world, it is bitter sweet.

@ZwhiteHistory @ondrejtupy @hartleyspecialc I never knew! That should include my very first paper, the one chaired by David Chandler. Ordered!
English
@ondrejtupy They published the conference proceedings of the first four conferences as a series of books called Wellington Studies (contact @hartleyspecialc to purchase copies) 👍

The Wellington Congress was where it all began for me.
First conference.
First meetings with leading experts of the field who took me under their wing.
First paper.
Inspiration personified.
Its one of the best conferences in the world for late 18th/early 19th c history.

@ZwhiteHistory If this is #1, then there must be no other movies showing. When I was at one of the larger theaters, there were exactly six of us at a 7:30 showing.
