Do you have a history book coming out in Spring 2023 and beyond? Small following? Small press? Small print run? Not a pres bio, book on Rome or Revolutions? Then drop that title below. @mikeduncan and I want to consider titles we might otherwise miss for our new podcast!

Really cool change to the Gutenberg Bible display at @Yale @BeineckeLibrary, placing it alongside an 8th century Japanese Buddhist sutra printed using woodblock, to "encourage consideration of print technology across time and cultures."
