I was very kindly sent a copy of @PaulMMCooper Fall of Civilisations by @Duckbooks which was published in paperback a few weeks ago. The depth and breadth of the research for this book, which is on a global scale is phenomenal. I loved the little details of the civilisations, as well as the way Cooper presents the bigger picture. Empires and polities, some well known and some unfamiliar, are depicted vividly, with the circumstances of their collapse a warning from the farthest reaches of history. A stunning achievement #fallofcivilisations

Could a woman be a detective in the 1870s? Yes, says Jem Poster (author of Eliza Mace); as @LearNonsense points out, women played an increasingly important part in police investigations from the 1860s.
