The Juliet Barker book looks great! I was thinking about my own first NF read, and the first I can remember is a book about the Great Auk, which I read aged about 11 or 12 (I remember the school library). That was in the early 80s, though. I also remember one about the Gunpowder Plot, which included details of the gory ends of the plotters - not really appropriate for that age! I love NF and always have a couple things on the go. Last week I borrowed "The Last of Its Kind" from the library, a new book about the Great Auk :-) I'm so glad I found your channel as I love your Victorian videos too.

The school library was truly a magical place when I was a kid haha. I owe so much to those librarians. Glad you're enjoying the videos!

This is a great tag. It's cool that your interest in the Romanovs has continued!

I wish I had time to go into it more. Maybe when the PhD is done.

LOL It is definitely your fault that I could not leave the thrift store today without the book Romanovs by W Bruce Lincoln.
