My #book on #WifeSelling describes how when young people moved to towns for better lives they often married in haste & soon fell out. The solution for some was to sell woman to her new partner. Held in public for openness, often with halter round her neck. In all formats. Physical & online stores

@HumphreyDavy by @SirThomasLawrence. Both #ChildProdigies whose talents were spotted by patrons & nurtured to become famous as Jesus was also a prodigy. Hard to imagine #IndustrialRevolution or #Enlightenment without them and others. See my book on #HenryBridges #Microcosm in all formats
