The Librarian's Almanac

September 12: These relics, bless.


Listen Later

On this day in 2012, excavators announced they likely found the remains of King Richard III of England under a carpark (parking lot for my fellow non-Bostonian Americans) in Leicester.

Listen to the poem that was read at his funeral by the poet laureate, Carol Ann Duffy, when he was finally re-buried.

Today is September 12, 2020.

This is the Librarian’s Almanac.
