Important News for ROADS TO THE GREAT WAR Subscribers — Please Read

Greetings,

Those readers who are signed up to receive email notices when a new Roads to the Great War article is posted may have noticed that the delivery of these emails has lately become erratic.  I believe this is because the Blogger/Google platform management has decided to eliminate the notification service as of 1 July and has not offered a replacement option.

I have spent the last month trying to find a replacement service and will continue to do so, but for the foreseeable future,  I need your support to work through this disruption:

1.  Be sure to set a bookmark or favorite for Roads to the Great War.  This will allow you to check yourself to see if there are any new articles while the notification service is disrupted.

2.  I need to develop a confirmed listing of everyone who wishes to receive such notices in the future.  So, on  Wednesday, 30 June 2021, I will be sending you an email explaining that you are on my current mailing list, and offering you the option to  decline future email notifications if you prefer.

3. In the interim, I will be doing a weekly mailing to you with links to all the past week's postings.

4. When I have a new email notification system running, the current subscribers will be automatically added

Thanks for you readership over the years,

Mike Hanlon

PS:  Suggestions or advice are welcome.
