What is your favorite part of history to read/learn about?

That sounds interesting. Who's the author? I think I've read just about everything James McPherson has put out with the exception of this new book he's done.






I've actually started a battle site tour. So far I've done Shiloh, Corinth, Fort Hudson, and Vicksburg. The three you've mentioned are the ones I'm most looking forward to.

I've been to Antietam and Gettysburg. Quite a few times while just walking I'd get a chill for no reason, as the weather was warm on both occasions. Many spirits in unrest at both places. They're not maleficent at all, just still troubled.
