November - a very melancholy month!
The Tudors thought about death around the start of November, and so for this month's magazine we're doing the same. You'll be fascinated by the detailed articles we've put together for you to enjoy... though some are a little bit gruesome - be warned!

Looking forward to going over to the dark side with Novembers magazine, just what you need for these long dark nights, lovely
Bravo! What a very well written magazine. I have never read anything relating to history that I could not stop reading. I loved all of the articles. Especially the one about Elizabeth of York. It was very compelling to get to know a little more about my descendant. I really got to know more about her. I look forward to the book when it is completed. I also liked the article on Melancholy. If you do not know a lot about Abraham Lincoln, please read “Lincoln’s Melancholy” How Depression Challenged a President and Fueled His Greatness by Joshua Wolf Shenk. It’s an eye opener. Thank you for a beautiful magazine and wonderful articles.
Thank you for your feedback, Linda, and I’m so glad you enjoyed this month’s magazine. I don’t know much about Abraham Lincoln and that book does sound interesting, thank you.
Thank you for the oportunity to win a copy of Kathryn Warner’s acclaimed biography of King Edward II? I am sure I will enjoy reading it

Just finished reading the magazine and I especially enjoyed Arthur the forgotten prince , and the royals and the silver screens. The articles as good as ever especially the gory ones.
I love reading all these magazines! I can’t wait till the day I can actually cross the water to England and see the places where the history took place!
I look forward to these magazines each month. I can’t wait to read this one. Keep up the great work!!
Thank you Brandi!
Looking forward to reading this, as ever. Such a high quality magazine. 🙂
