The Fearless Benjamin Lay: The Quaker Dwarf Who Became the First Revolutionary Abolitionist |

1. Tagged. I have had this book on my TBR for years. What a title!
2. No. I have thought about pre-ordering The Dead Cat Tail Assassins, but it is coming out around my birthday, so I will wait and see if it gets gifted. I'm considering pre-ordering 49 Miles Alone, but the library is so much cheaper :-)
#Baldwin, #LaphamsQuarterly and a most recently finished book, on the og abolitionist, Benjamin Lay. Wonderfully fun to read about this righteous 'eccentric'.
Did you know that today is International Dwarfism Awareness Day? Neither did I until I serendipitously came across Little People of America in the book I am reading. The organization is on Facebook and Instagram (and probably more, but those are the only ones I'm on). Also, the tagged book sounds fascinating (mentioned in the same book I am reading) #dwarfismawareness
pickFascinating biography of someone who deserves to be much better remembered
pickRediker displays his research chops presenting us with what is known of Benjamin Lay, possibly rescuing an accomplished and unique historical figure from obscurity, though it is a bit dry as a narrative.
