Hi! I’m Mckenzie and I was once told by a tour guide that she tired her family with her talk of history. She said they’d finally had enough and told her to become a tour guide…Upon hearing this my family immediately said to me, “Kenz, maybe YOU should become a tour guide.” (Apparently my talk of Mostly British History was not as exciting to them as it was to me!) Well, in a way, now I am! So if you find yourself caught up in glittering and scandalous world of the past, if you have historical questions that gnaw at you, or if you just want to hear about the latest historical fiction or period drama that has come out, this is the sub stack for you!
Mostly British History brings the world of Down Abby to Life. History told through the glittering and scandalous world of the (mostly) British Nobility. Shining a light on historical figures and the part they played in shaping their own time and today.
Mostly British History will look at familiar historical figures in a new light, highlight those who were a part of history that you may not have heard of, examine letters, ask questions and work to paint as accurate a picture of the past as possible. I can’t wait for you to step back into the past with us!
