History in the Making

An Historian’s Christmas Guide

I know that this isn’t one of my regular posting days, but I wanted to share my exciting news with you- my An Historian’s Christmas guide has officially launched! I’ve always loved the holiday season, and I think that the holidays play a significant role in our own history. In my adulthood, I’ve slowly found ways to add more historical inspiration to Christmas and the holidays, and I’m happy to share that with you!

After over 5 ½ years of An Historian About Town, I knew that I wanted to diversify from just the blog. I am absolutely one of those “obsessed with the holidays” people, so a history of Christmas guide made perfect sense. Not only do I start planning baking, decorations, and gifts in the middle of the summer, I’ve also got actual training in it. I took an upper-level course in the history of Christmas from one of the leading scholars, and have carried on with my own Christmas research ever since. I admit, it is a rather unorthodox area of study but I love it nevertheless. 

An Historian's Christmas Guide

You can find the guide here on my Etsy shop! You can use nearly every form of payment (including Paypal), and it will be an immediate download. In An Historian’s Christmas you will find the history of the holidays, recipes, DIYs, how-tos, and countless (easy) ways to bring historical inspiration to your own holiday season. Given that most of us will be largely housebound in December (no matter the weather), it is time to embrace the holidays! 

I have loved writing and creating this guide, and I hope that you can use it in your own holiday celebrations. Please tag your historical celebrations with #AnHistorianHolidays on Instagram or Twitter, so that we can enjoy together! And please feel free to let me know if you have any questions about the guide that I can answer.
