Congratulations to all involved. We understand a little of the commitment required - our VCH history of Loughborough (only post 1750 and only social and cultural history at the moment) is "just" 100,000 words but has kept us occupied for what seems like ages. Out later this year. Watch this space.

Huge thanks to @vch-oxon.bsky.social and @dbcrouch.bsky.social for bringing these books together - between them totalling over 500,000 words, over 200 images, over 40 maps, with tables, floorplans and everything from huge prehistoric earthworks to F1 cars.
