Eric Flint's 1632 & Beyond Issue #6
Get ready to be transported through time and into the heart of 17th century Germany in "Passing Fair" by Virginia DeMarce. That term (passing fiar) is the source of confusion between up-timers and down-timers and something of a pun—but it's also a matter about which reasonable people can, and do, sharply disagree.
"From Cramps To Matrimony" delves into the complex web of socioeconomic and domestic tension sparked by a seemingly innocent cup of speciality tea from Grantville.
But the real thrill comes with the lasts story in Robert E. Waters' baseball stories, "Cassini Runs Home." Young Cassini must face the end of his team’s season, but is it the end of his love affair with baseball?
Tim Sayeu’s "A Guest At The New Year" will have you on the edge of your seat with its wild twists and turns. Of all the future knowledge an up-timer could provide a down-timer, there isn’t a ghost of a chance this was on your list.
And if that's not enough, Iver P. Cooper's beekeeping article on its potential in a new timeline will have you buzzing with excitement as he explores the potential of this new timeline.
Don't wait any longer! If you loved the previous books and magazines in the 1632verse, you won't want to miss out on this thrilling new installment.

This issue has good stories. My favorite is Waters' 'Cassini Runs Home." I hope that series of stories comes out in book form, one that besides the Kindle edition is printed on real paper. This issues' non-fiction article was even more interesting than last issues, even though it was the remainder of last issues article. All-in-all a good issue.

What is bigotry? What is baseball?
In one story, Grantville debates half breeds, theater and Christianity. In another, a little Italian boy falls in love with baseball.

Slightly better than Issue 5. Part 2 of the Bee Keeping non-fiction piece, which was good. I enjoyed the mailbag story.

Good read!
Seemed like the good start for more complex things to come. The plays and the self involved zealot competition is notable and engaging.
