At two years old, How-to History has shared nearly eighty informational posts and has over eight hundred subscribers. Thank you to everyone who has supported us as we have developed this project to help historical research and understanding. We certainly couldn’t, and wouldn’t, do this without our readers, subscribers and authors. A special thank you to everyone who shares our posts, and to our paid subscribers.
In 2024 we are publishing an increasing number of posts from historians who are sharing from their own areas of expertise. This widening of voices and backgrounds has been exciting to see. We are always looking for proposals for pieces, so please get in touch if you would like to write a How-to of your own at howtohistory@substack.com.
Looking forward, we have plans to continue How-to History into the future, sharing all manner of posts from ourselves and a range of excellent historians.
Looking back, our six most popular posts are listed below for those who have joined us since then or might be looking for a refresher.
