In this Pinch of the Past, we take a peek at train travel in the 1800s. With no shortage of first-class passengers clamoring for tickets, Pullman invented all sorts of specialty cars.

They featured carpeted floors, mirrors in gilded frames, marble and walnut washstands, colorfully frescoed ceilings, and silver-plated metal trappings. (Full post here.)


Book Review: If you enjoy well-researched historical fiction with plenty of danger, and enemies-to-lovers romance, pick up a copy of The Sound of Diamonds. This is the first book in the Steadfast Love Series, so if you find yourself hooked, there’s more to enjoy. (Full post here.)
