I'll be giving a talk on those 'Scandalous Stuarts' at Leicester Guildhall on 18 May 2025, 14:00 - 15:00. @leicestermuseum 'Join 17th-century historian Andrea Zuvich (The Seventeenth Century Lady) as she leads us through the most significant stories from an often-overlooked period...It was over a century of love, lust, war, and scandal.'
Tickets are £5: leicestermuseums.org/event-d…

So this happened today … Talk at Leicester Guildhall by Mark Turnbull, an author specializing in the 17th Century.
Fabulous presentation … looking forward to reading the publication … and we look forward to seeing @1642Author again next year, with his next publication.

You can join me at the amazing guildhall at Leicester for a talk about King Charles I - Tues 17 Sept at 2pm.
It was here, in 1604, that the three-year-old Charles was feted as he made his way from Dunfermline to Windsor.

We’ve no idea if he’ll survive. I know I have a big fan base in India and if I could could ask one thing it’s to please share this post. Everyone deserves justice. Elias Kazmi deserves justice.

Something happened in the last 48 hours that has devastated me. A friend of mine Elias Kazmi was involved in a road rage incident. Elias was dragged along a car at full speed by a cops son in Jammu, Kashmir. Elias is now in ICU with brain clots broken bones.
