Glad Tidings from Gin Lane

It has been a wonderfully whirlwind few months here at the Guide; thank you to all of you who have read, shared, encouraged, written and made this worthwhile. There shall be a brand new dispatch from the long 18th century tomorrow but for today, have a delightfully decadent day and don't forget you can read my brand new guest post on Richard Arkwright at the English Historical Fiction Authors blog!

Winter by Francois Boucher, 1755
