You can read a book (at the risk of your eyesight) off your computer screen, or you can have it read to you by some famous actor; you can beg, borrow or steal a book from a friend – in my case the last verb is the most appropriate – or you may, just possibly prefer to buy the book to keep among all the others in your bookshelf. This kind of printed book is what you take to bed with you, where you read it chapter after chapter with your head nicely rested on your pillows and that reading light you found at Ikea providing the light. Or you can seat yourself in a favourite armchair after choosing a real book from a vast library or a modest collection.
General History is available to just about everywhere on this planet by going to Amazon Books, clicking on Books, and then typing ‘Jeremy Taylor-General-History’ or ‘Dean Swift-General-History’. Click on this and all three volumes (there will soon be a fourth) will appear on your screen. Then choose how you will buy it (at remarkably low cost), and very soon you will have 99% of the articles or posts published on-line, in printed book mode, to keep for ever.
Very best wishes, yours ever, Jeremy Taylor.
Dear Author,
Many thanks for your clear, succinct historical summaries. I am currently working on another novel set in C17 India and Europe (Spain and Portugal) and your background information is invaluable for checking dates and double-checking details. I shall be using your site more often from now on.
Yours, JGH
Thank you very much, you will be very welcome !
Thank you very much, Mr Jeremy Crossing-Taylor, alias Dean Swift, died some months ago. I’m his son and owner of the website.
