It's fascinating what things catch people's fancy, like the hats. It reminds me of the ladies fashion statement of wearing red ribbons around their necks as a nod to guillotined noble women.

Once I understood that we have always had the same drivers, and passions, but now were more open about them. It was a great mindset for writing historical fiction. And I so agree, people have always loved scandal and sensationalism. And as long as people can make money from it, they will.C.A.Asbreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12342631407475364397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-59206300688107046202021-02-02T15:11:00.608-06:002021-02-02T15:11:00.608-06:00Christine, you always research and post such inter...Christine, you always research and post such interesting subjects--this one is no exception. I couldn't help thinking times don't change....we still have our yellow journalism with lurid headlines and photos. I've always said human nature doesn't change, only the window dressing changes.

I feel like I've heard the term "mullered" for drunk, probably from the Brit around the house -- I wonder if M even knows where the term came from.<br /><br />Bleak House and The Woman in White -- two of my favorites.
