Magna Carta in New York City

A volcano, of which you may have heard, recently left this author stranded in New York.

Boo hoo, I know.

Alas, flights reopened just too early for me to get along to have a look at a copy of Magna Carta, which was in town for a visit.

(Magna Carta was also stranded in New York. Don’t ask me why.)

Anyway, I am glad I have a subscription to The New Yorker, because it was that excellent magazine which reported on the exhibition. My copy arrived in London shortly after I did. Go figure, as they say across the Pond.
