Cruelly taken from us #OTD at the battle of Marston Moor in 1644. Boye, Prince Rupert's fabulous (big) poodle. He had been tied up for safety but escaped and ran into the melee #Poodlehistory

This is out now - Jonathan Healey’s The Blood in Winter, and I’m just reading it. Highly recommended - an absolute tour de force. Great combination of scholarship and vivid writing.
