It's apparently World Book Day, time to defile your poor old shelves with a copy of Turtleshead Revisited! Available in all good bookshops, most crap ones, online at amzn.to/4i0zfY2 and in a skip round the back of the printers.

I've been reading more about the 7 Years War, this time the Indian theatre and the battle of Plassey. The campaigns at this time in India are fascinating, history changing events. Moghul India has declined, but the question is, who will take their place? (Spoiler alert, the East India Company)
