Maney Journal of the Month, and other stuff.
Time for a few links for your reading delectation!
Maney's Journal of the Month is Costume, the journal of the Costume Society. Which means they are offering 50 articles for free access until the end of this month. Most (if not all of them) are post-medieval and modern in focus.
