Going to London on Monday for a work meeting. Needed a new tweed jacket so have popped in to my favourite town (Shrewsbury) to get one. Now sitting with a railway book and a pint in the Three Fishes #shrewsbury #tweed #pubs
I’m going to be in my old stomping ground of #Antrim #NorthernIreland from Thursday to Saturday. Anyone around? Anything I should check out while there? Where could I buy a Donegal #tweed jacket?

It's been two years since I last took a crack at the Modern Library Nonfiction project. But I've just dropped an essay on William H. McNeill's flawed masterpiece, THE RISE OF THE WEST. While this massive history book is a product of its times, I still believe it's worth reading today. I also think McNeill was not a neoliberal and was remarkably inclusive. Just be careful about tweed, okay? :)

The Rise of the West (Modern Library Nonfiction #71) - Reluctant Habits

William H. McNeill's classic work of history from 1963, a key volume arguing that civilizations influenced each other, was published during a time in which liberal Western democracies were believed to be the answer to nearly everything. But how does this optimistic book hit during the Second Age of the Evil Orange Monster?

Reluctant Habits - a cultural forum in ever-shifting standing
It has been a while since I posted anything but here is an etching of the view from the window of the Edinburgh to London train as it crosses the Royal Border Bridge over the River #Tweed above #Berwick. #Lindisfarne and #Bamburgh castles are on the distant horizon.
This is from a brass plate etched by spit-bite. Plate size 300x210mm.

I need to get a new #tweed jacket (one with thinner than the heaviest gauge Harris Tweed). I'd like pure tweed (no synthetics) and also prefer a natural fabric liner (viscose or cotton or silk), though I may have to be flexible on that.

Any suggestions for decent quality and price?
