So often History writing continues to be about powerful, wealthy, influential people. The lives that most interest me are the millions whose voices were barely heard even in their own time. I attend closely to eight of them in #Lifescapes, just out now: amazon.co.uk/Lifescapes-Exp…

So I didn't quite make it up for dawn and the #hedgemorris (tradfolk.co/performance/mo…), but here is some music for #MayDay, played on my 100-year-old and not-quite-in-tune banjo, sitting by the May blossoms. Doing my bit to bring the summer in (I hope).

It appears from the weather today that summer is not, in fact, about to come in. The only solution I can think of is more seasonal encouragement by means of the banjo. Surely that will work.

This colourful map was recently viewed #InTheSearchroom. It is a survey of the Holt estate, Wokingham, by John Smith (no date, late 18th century). We love the attention to detail including all the different buildings. #ColourfulArchives #Archive30

My review of Jeremy Burchardt's "Lifescapes" (CUP) for @CultSocHistory is now available online. An exemplary historical study of the emotional and physical experience of landscape. It's a wondrous book, contemplative and empathetic throughout. doi.org/10.1080/147800…

6 months ago the Pakistan accord was set up to ensure the safety of garment workers in Pakistan. But @boohoo are still dragging their feet on signing it. I stand with Pakistan workers - @boohoo protect your workers, #SignThePakistanAccord now!
