Now! Then! A Yorkshire Almanac for 2024 (Sheep Flavour), by The Singing Organ-Grinder (paperback)

Now! Then! A Yorkshire Almanac for 2024 (Sheep Flavour) is a book-length calendar portraying Yorkshire on this day. Now! lists modern happenings in the heavens and on earth. Then! consists of daily historical serendipities: from the creation of the Yorkshireman (and, after a brief pause, -woman) by the Archbishop of Armagh on Friday, 28 October 4004 B.C. at around tea-time; to a terrible memory which assails the Singing Organ-Grinder on 9 April 2021, on the M62 at Hartshead Moor Services, as he makes his way in a removal van from Hackney to his new home in Headingley; and including the recollections and writings of paupers and princes, clerics and politicians, scientists and inventors, artists and writers, soldiers and prisoners, natives and foreigners, and so on and so forth, their common theme being Yorkshire. Based on the website.
