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

Lindbergh baby kidnapping, jack the ripper no one mentioned any of the famous unsolved mysteries. d.b.cooper, Amelia erhart. I've read a little about the lindy case and the ripper,the other two not so much. as far as war goes the American revolution amazes me,ragtag groups of rebels don't beat major powers without very strong leadership and quite a commitment to the cause.
