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

I love just about anything to do with history, American, WWII(My dad fought in the Pacific) Civil War. Local history. Now that I live and work in Southwest Alabama I am learning a lot about the Creek Wars, when Andrew Jackson allied with Pushmataha and the Choctaw Nation to defeat the Red Stick Creeks. The lost city of Claiborne, in which a fellow by the name of Col. William Barret Travis lived, practiced law, and reportedly was run out of for having an affair with a married woman, he wound up at a place in Texas called The Alamo.
