…but it sometimes does, when you least expect it.

Someone commented on the Agincourt blog on Saturday that the BBC History Magazine had mentioned the town of Agincourt, Iowa in its current (February 2025) issue.

The article concerns the invocation of Agincourt through history, its meaning and how it was intended to be understood. Imagine my surprise when I found the article (the last page of which is reproduced here) and discovered we’ve been mentioned. My shrink, Dr. Bob, always said that Agincourt was a healthy outlet for my creativity to the point where I begin to pack for the move there. Frankly, retirement in Agincourt would be a treat. And y’all could drop in whenever it was convenient and sit a spell.

If this is the last entry in the blog, my work has been done. And I hope, done well.
