Just for fun I’m listing this week’s historical highlights in alphabetical order. I hope you find something interesting to read. (I particularly enjoyed the article by Jane Austen’s editor.)

“Becoming a Biographer: How to Tell Someone Else’s Life Story”

“Brooklyn Museum’s ‘Legacy of Lynching’ Exhibition Confronts Racial Terror”

“How the Silk Road Created the Modern Apple”

“Jane Austen’s Editor on the Benefits of Editing the Beloved Novelist”

“A Rare Etruscan Brooch Rediscovered”

“The True Story of the Short-Lived State of Franklin”

That’s all for today. Enjoy these last days of summer; Labour Day is around the corner! (Fall is my favourite season, so I can’t say I’m sad, but I do plan on soaking up the rest of August as best I can).
