Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee Two Ways -PSIB- From the eyes of a boy and the eyes of Victoria
12:35
Apologies on this one if the sound in the title sequence is funky. Queen Victoria was an iconic figure whose reign represents an entire epoch. She ruled over one of the greatest eras of scientific, industrial, and social change in both British and international history. Under her gaze, England became the superpower of the 1800s. Her Diamond Jubilee…

Who grew up thinking that the Wild West took place over 100 years? All the movies and TV shows made it seem like this period lasted a really long time. Instead, the golden age of the Wild West was over in about 30 years, as the Gold Rushes ended and the towns along the railroads became increasingly civilized. Andy Adams' "Log of the Cowboy," tells …

John Churchill, the Duke of Marlborough, absolutely crushed the forces of the French at the Battle of Blenheim. His account is one of negligent smugness. It is a true veni, vidi, vici moment in history. A soldier of good family but little status, Churchill would rise to become one of the most famous soldiers in British history, spawning a dynasty t…

Imagine... Richard Frethorne, a 12-year-old boy is sent as an indentured servant to the Virginia Colony near Jamestown because his family back in England was poor. He has an awesome time. Really! REAAAAAALLLY! Ok. Totally lying. This is McBirdo's expedition! It is a disaster! Hello and welcome to The Past Said It Better! A table read of primary sou…

The Charge of the Light Brigade at the Battle of Balaclava during the Crimean War is one of those epic moments in Anglo-Saxon history. A group of tremendously brave men was slaughtered through a series of unfortunate events and foolhardiness. Those who witnessed the event found it heartbreaking. As French General Brite said, "I am old, I have seen …

The "Gesta Francorum Iherusalem peregrinantium" by Fulcher of Chartres is the definitive chronicle of the First Crusade. In this first chapter, Fulcher tells us the real reason the princes of Europe went off to fight in the Holy Land. Was it piety? Or was it two popes, duking it out to be number one? If you guessed "power struggle between popes" yo…

Public execution was a staple of British life until 1867! In 1849, the Bermondsey Horror case was one where Marie Manning and her husband murdered her rich lover and buried him under the kitchen floorboards. They tried to escape justice but were caught, tried, and sentenced to death. Charles Dickens went to the execution and was so horrified by wha…

Oops! I did it again, Baby! Becket is back- or rather- he's still dead, but the story continues. What happened to his corpse? Did the knights take it? Did the monks leave it? Tune in for Becket, Part II. I wish I could say it's Becket's Revenge, but that's probably part III or IV. Hello and welcome to The Past Said It Better! A table read of primar…

On April 26, 1937, Nazi Germany's Condor Legion let loose a wave of bombs on the Basque city of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War. Hitler's Luftwaffe, supporting the Nationalist forces of General Franco, used Guernica and other bombing raids as an opportunity to test out their new planes and develop aerial strategy. Hello and welcome to The Pas…

The 1793 Yellow Fever Outbreak in Philadelphia killed 10% of the population. This is the time when Philadelphia was still the capital of the USA. George Washington was the President. As usual, the deaths occurred amongst the poor who had not the money to flee. Samuel Breck was a merchant from a prosperous family who had to return to the city for bu…

The Bonus Army Demonstrations and the destruction of the Anacostia Flats camp are some of the darker moments of the Great Depression in America. It is hard to fault men whose families were starving from trying to get Congress to pay them the promised war bonus early. Evalyn Walsh McLean's account of the situation is certainly one from the perspecti…

The murder of Thomas Becket by four of Henry II's knights is an immortal moment in English history. While "Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?" is an 18th-century affectation, it is clear that Henry II said something to send his knights off to Canterbury to deal with the archbishop! What is interesting about Grim's account is that Becket s…
