EUROHISTORY Issues CXXI – CXXIV, Volume 22 – 2019

Greetings from a quarantined home office!
I hope you are all doing well and staying safe. I have been sheltered-in-place at home since March 13. What we thought was going to be a two-week home retreat and remote teaching, has now turned into a completely remote teaching through the end of the school year!
This has been extremely disruptive for the lives of countless billions of people worldwide. Yet, from a long-term view, it is in our best interest. COVID-19 is extremely contagious. I already know people who have died of it, as well as seven who have it and are in isolation.
Yet, as I always do when life does not go our way: I look at the silver lining.
Just a couple of weeks before the quarantine, I had sent to print Issues CXXI and CXXII. After several check-ins and last minute changes, I received the "go-ahead" to print the run. Then, I made the mistake of not heading straight to our printer to pick them up on March 13. The printer was compelled to shut down the next business day, as have most non-essential businesses in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa...
No one else to blame but me: c'est la vie.
However, the silver lining is the fact that I have been homebound since then. I teach remotely to my 100+ students every morning between 900am-1200pm. Then, after lunch with David, who has also been working remotely since March 13, I walk into my home office and start working on EUROHISTORY. I have a lot of catching up to do!
All the issues for 2019 are now finished – two printed, which I cannot retrieve yet; two ready to print the moment our printer in Berkeley opens for business.
Furthermore, I have been working on Issue CXXV, Volume 23.1 – Spring 2020...it is almost finished. It will go to print before renewals come in and be ready too mail as we begin processing 2020 renewals!
You all make this possible, even and in spite of my lackadaisical and quirky character. I am trying to be better about deadlines and such...but culturally and inspirationally, sometimes it is a real challenge. I can only write when I get inspired! Your support of EUROHISTORY and its mission is something that I truly cherish and for which I am most grateful.
We are going to upload PDF versions of the 2019 Eurohistory Issues for SUBSCRIBERS to download!
If you email us, we can send you a link for you to download your copy. I am doing this not because you will not get a printed/physical copy (which you will), but to provide you with reading material while we are all sheltered and socially-distanced at home.
You will receive an email from WETRANSFER.COM along with a link. Clicking on the link will take you to their website and there the download of the issue will begin. From my end, I can see who has downloaded their copy of EUROHISTORY (as well as how many times the download is being done!). These links are only going to those who paid for their 2019 subscriptions...please respect copyright and do not share the PDFs. I trust that you will be mindful of the enormous amount of work that all of us at EUROHISTORY put into the magazine and the cost and work it incurs.
If you do not know if we have your email, PLEASE contact me at aebeeche@mac.com and I will send you the link for your download!
Once businesses open here, I will proceed with retrieving Issues CXXI and CXXII from our printer, and with sending Issues CXXIII and CXXIV to print. The download is NOT a replacement of the printed issue for which you paid.
Personally, I prefer printed reading material. Yet, as several subscribers told me over the last few days, many of you use electronic reading devices - especially in our present circumstances. Hence, following the advice of these dedicated subscribers, I made the decision to release PDFs of the 2019 EUROHISTORY Issues.
I stand here alone and let you know that it is no one's fault but mine that the magazine got behind. I could tell you myriad reasons why (and, trust me when I tell you our family life is challenging due to our sons' traumas and having to be fully invested in raising little Ezra, plus dealing with my health issues). Yet, in the end, I owe you the magazine coming out on time. So, hopefully, I will be able to not disappoint moving forward. I am so thankful for your support of all of the people behind EUROHISTORY that make this publication possible. It has been my joy, and the delight of the ERHJ's contributors, to continue to keep the European Royal History Journal going full steam ahead.
I hope you like the issues, I really do!
Stay well and stay safe.
Best wishes,
Arturo Beéche

The Newest QVD: A Little Saxe-Coburg and Gotha Has Arrived!
Note: Many thanks to our dear friend Hein Bruins, of Hein's Royal Genealogy Page, who kindly informed us of the birth of this newest descendant of Queen Victoria!
Daniel Prinz von Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha and his wife Eileen Chen have welcomed a daughter, whom they have named Chloe. Chloe Prinzessin von Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha was born within the past few days. The newborn's parents, Daniel and Eileen, married on 4 July 2017 at Bern, Switzerland. Chloe joins an older brother: Chadwick Prinz von Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha (b.16 May 2018).
Daniel is a son of the late Prince Adrian of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (1955-2011) and Adrian's first wife Lea Rinderknecht (b.1960). Adrian and Lea married in 1984 and had two sons: Simon (b.1985) and Daniel (b.1988). As the marriage was considered morganatic, neither Simon or Daniel (or Daniel's offspring) are considered to be Saxe-Coburg and Gotha dynasts.
According to royal genealogist Daniel Willis, Chloe is 350th in the line of succession to the British throne. In addition to being a descendant of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom, Chloe of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha is also a descendant of Victoria's half-sister Feodora.

The newest Coburg was born prematurely on March 24. Given the present worldwide health crisis, the baby remains under care and isolated.
Baby Chloe's great-uncle is Prince Andreas of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, the Head of the Ducal House.
We send our congratulations to the couple on this happy occasion!

Socially Distant, But Far From Idle
 |
| Sometimes I wear this tie when I've pretending to be a writer. |
I’ve been mourning the loss of so many Sherlockian activities, as I mentioned last week. But I have not been idle. Here are some of the writing projects that have occupied me in this Age of Quarantine, with apologies for the necessary lack of specifics:
- My next Sebastian McCabe – Jeff Cody book, a collection of three novellas, is in the hands of its second beta reader. This one, Murderers’ Row, fills in some blanks in the series. Two of the stories take place before the most recent McCabe-Cody novel, Too Many Clues. MX should publish the book in September.
- Meanwhile I’m making strides every day in plotting the next McCabe-Cody, which will be back to novel length. The title, not yet ready for unveiling, is a quote from Sherlock Holmes.
- My new Sherlock Holmes pastiche novel for Wessex Press, The Sword of Death, just got back to me from the second reader and I have incorporated his suggestions. Look for this one next January at the Baker Street Irregulars Weekend.
- On Thursday of last week I finished editing eight out of nine essays for a book coming this fall from Belanger Books. It’s a project I’ve had in mind for years, putting between the same covers a Canonical Sherlock Holmes story with two related pastiches. Each story will be accompanied by three essays and five original illustrations. This will be a handsome hardcover book in slipcase.
- On Friday I sent the Baker Street Journal an essay I’ve been working on for years. But I didn’t know that’s what I was doing until last week!
That doesn't even include the reading that I've been doing.
So, though I miss the non-virtual contact with my friends, I’m not bored! I hope that you, too are being productive at this unique time in history.

Yalnız Kovboy Bazılarımız çocukken çizgi filmini seyretmiş olabilir. Kovboy ve yerli arkadaşı Tont ve kovboyun beyaz atı Gümüş'ün batıda geçen maceraları klasik westernlerin tadın dilinizde hoş bir anı olarak canlandıracaktır. Adalet ve gerçeğin peşinde olan kahramanlarımızı yine zorlu bir görev bekliyor. Teksas'ta nüfuzlu çiftlik sahipleri kendi çıkarlarını destekleyen bir politikacı bulmuşlardır. Dikenli tel batıyı yeniden ama birilerinin, serbestçe oradan oraya geçenlerin, aleyhine değiştirmektedir. Bir de bunu kanun kılıfına sokarak arazinize girenleri öldürme yetkisiyle desteklediğinizde savaş kaçınılmaz bir şekilde çıkar.
