Admire the amazing photo and then read the biography, which is even more amazing.

Fossil hunter, folklorist, evangelist, stonemason, editor, social justice campaigner, & geologist, Hugh Miller (1802–1856) – born #OTD, 10 Oct – should be remembered in the company of Carlyle, Ruskin, Matthew Arnold & JS Mill as one of the leading moral & social thinkers of the #C19th

A 🎂🧵
Faded 19th-century sepia photograph of Hugh Miller. He is standing, dressed in workman's overalls, his shirt-sleeves rolled up. He has bushy hair and large sideburns, and his left elbow is propped up on a carved gravestone. His right hand rests on a large stonemason's maul, and he holds a chisel in his left hand.

Of all the mystifying decisions Andy Burnham has made “the skillset and biography of Chris Bryant” and “the Northern Ireland brief” is the wildest.

I love this biography, despite really not being into biographies. Cynthia Payne is a legend. [featuring grungy basement!]

"Why Lonesome Dove? Why now?" Well a big new biography of its author just came out. The review of it I read spent a long time on Lonesome Dove. Aren't writers for Jacobin supposed to favor material explanations?

Just bought The Illustrated Gormenghast Trilogy and the authorised biography of The Bangles on Kindle for 99p each. I expect the recommendation algorithm to deliver something fairly spectacular in a couple of minutes.
