Hi all,

Firstly, I am offering 25% off of paid subscriptions for the first year (that’s £2.63 per month or £26.25 for a whole year, or the equivalent in other currencies). The offer runs until Sunday, 4 August.

Take up 25% discount offer

If you appreciate my work and can afford to do so, please do consider taking up this offer. It is coming up to a year that I’ve been writing this newsletter, and it’s one of the most fun things I’ve done, but can only afford to continue doing so if paid subscription numbers increase.

Paid subscribers receive regular posts in the Rewound series, analysing objects or episodes from cultural and political history.

Rewound

For Rewound, I wrote this post on Reverend Wilbert V. Awdry’s first entry in The Railway Series, 1945’s The Three Railway Engines, and on what it meant for an Anglican curate and railway enthusiast to make engines alive.
