There’s been a rather American vibe here at Wrightington Towers for a while now…

While Robert’s been working on this term’s A History of the USA (inter alia), I’ve been immersing myself in Colonial America via historical fiction.

I’ve not been so immersed, however, that I’d forget our now-traditional Fall Autumn round-up of our upcoming Short & Sweet courses.

Yes. I do know that it’s dogies, not doggies. Sorry-not-sorry…

So. To honour our autumnal rounding-up tradition in a “Fall ‘25” idiom, it’s time to dig out those shiny new pencil cases, keepin’ those doggies rollin’…
