Ruth Taylor, Enthusiast @13-taylor.bsky.social · 23/11/2025This week I attended the SAHR annual Templer Dinner and Lecture. Profs Kevin Linch and David Lambert, had me on the edge of my seat talking about "The Army, Manpower Issues, and their Legacies, 1793-1815". (Winderfully topped off by finding @BlackRedcoats.bsky.social 's book in the Library!) 020
