Her execution on the block at Fotheringhay Castle was a mere six hours away 👑

Intrigued by the People’s Bookshelf at the National Library of Latvia. Each book in the collection has been donated by a member of the public and is inscribed by its former owner, telling a personal story relating to the book.
