Okay, we are alive. Hi, this is William Ramsey. Welcome to William Ramsey Investigates on today's show. I have a very special guest. She comes to us from the UK. Her name is Catherine Arnold, C-A-T-H-A-R-I-N-E, Arnold. And she published a book in 2018, fascinating book, very timely book, before this pandemic. The Title of her book is,

Pandemic,

1918,

eyewitness accounts from the greatest medical Holocaust and modern history.

And we were talking in the pre-show.

And it has here in the States 818 five-star reviews.

There's an audio book as well,

done by a very professional sounding actor with a brilliant British accent.

But Catherine Arnold is, this is not her first book.

She has also read or written Bedlam, London and It's Mad, 2008.

Necropolis, London and it's dead, 2008.

The sexual history of London from Roman Lundianium to the Swinging City, Lust, Vice, and Desire Across the Ages, published 2011.

Underworld London, Crime and Punishment in the Capital City, 2012.

Edward the Seventh, the Prince of Wales and the women he loved, 2017.

And then also, her newest book after pandemic 1918 is published in 2021. Title of that is Globe, Life in Shakespeare's London. And she read English at Curtin College, Cambridge, and she holds

a further degree in psychology. She is a journalist, academic, and popular historian, and was

formerly in 2018 and 19, the Sheriff of Nottingham.

So that's pretty fascinating, something that goes back to the 15th century.

So Catherine Arnold, thank you for agreeing to the interview.

I really appreciate you spending time to talk about this book.

It's a pleasure.

Awesome.
