Today is the 40th anniversary of the Battle of Orgreave, a pivotal moment in the 1984 Miners’ Strike by the National Union of Mineworkers. Scenes of police violence, of officers beating miners with truncheons and a bloody cavalry charge, paint the collective memory of this event.

My review of ‘Politics and the English Country House, 1688-1800’ just been published. Lots of fascinating articles. Got some free copies of review to share- let me know if you want one! (And yes, apparently I am still pretending to be an historian!) tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
