From Bosworth to the Grey Friars Tombs and Tales
A sprawling 16th to 19th century pastiche recounts Bosworth Field, Richard III’s downfall, and the postbattle burial at Grey Friars. It weaves in Henry VII’s tomb, a Paris life of Mina, Roelli’s torture and rescue, Buckley’s ventilator, dramatic history, naval lever-fid trials, and a collage of court and public notices, including obliquely the Dysart will, duels, baronetcies, and a New York penitentiary anecdote.

Population growth and mortality in historical analysis
The text argues on population dynamics over eras, estimating global births and deaths, generation spans, and demographic ratios. It cites Major Kaunt on gender ratios and links religious law to natural order, claiming the Christian prohibition of polygamy maintains balance, with male excess tied to dangers and wars. It frames population as divinely ordered despite animal population increases after the biblical flood.
