Looking forward to the house of lilies. Happy that this is in the works. Your books always had me wondering about the other side of the story!

Question for January's edition of the Substack q&a

( from me, Julie - henceforth to be known as " Chalke Valley lady" as I seem to reference this festival every time I see you ..or indeed accost you for another signed book in the Waterstones tent.....)

Anyway, it seems to me that part of the joy of being a historian is the research. Visiting new towns for archive material, libraries for rare book/ manuscripts etc. As more material is digitalised, and AI becomes more accessible/' powerful', do you think this will result in the death of painstaking hours of research?

See you at the National Portrait gallery in the NY! Have a good one.

Thanks for always answering my questions Dan, I am really enjoying this as much, if not more, than the FB lives! I found Patrick on here so I'm going to give him a sub and check his page. Really really appreciate all you do for your supporters, it truly feels like a 'community' even though you are correct, it is overused. And Thanks for the shoutout of my substack now I'm motivated to keep at it! - happy holidays from a long time fan and supporter of yours 💗 Amy Rodriguez

Thank you for taking the time and effort for your readers and fans. I hope you have a lovely Christmas with your family - my two girls would love a woof out from Prince if he has a moment!

Thank you for answering my question.

Great idea to do this once a month.

Learning a lot of the English history (in The Netherlands you hardly learn anything about the English history in school).
