This show is free and independent due to member support and as thanks for helping keep

the community going, I offer members only content such as extra episodes and rough transcripts.

If you're interested in supporting the show and helping us out, you can do so over at

the British History Podcast.com. And thank you very much to Alexander, Peter, and Miles

for joining up and becoming a part of the project.
