Ace in the Wild: An Asexual Perspective of Hot Topics & EventsAiTW Episode 13 - William Pitt the Younger: The ’Schoolboy’ Prime MinisterI'm back to my regular format for the time being. I've been wanting to discuss this exceptional British Prime Minster who took over the position at the ripe age of 24 and held power for nearly twenty years. Pitt not only fixed the nation's financial woes after the loss of the American Colonies, but also faced off against Napoleon in the largest European war to date and had to contend with the ongoing madness and mental decline of his Monarch, King George III. He is truly a fascinating figure and one of the few people in history who I can c...

Stratford MailPainting Mr. PittSend us a textIf you’ve visited Stratford Hall since 2016, you likely noticed the looming full-length portrait of British statesman WIlliam Pitt the elder in our parlor. Standing at 8 feet by 5 feet, it’s difficult to miss! That painting reproduces the original now hanging in the Westmoreland County Museum. From the hand of Maryland painter Charles Willson Peale, the original shipped from London and arrived at Chantilly, the home of Richard Henry Lee, on April 7, 1769. When Americans still had confidence in the normal political process of the British empire, they commemorated the efforts of British polit...

Britain did win a couple more victories, notably in Malta and then, with the Turks, over the isolated remnants of the French Army of Egypt.
