I pretty much like all aspects of history, the less it's sugar coated the better. I do have my favorite areas, though: Ancient history starting with the early humans and the rise of the first civilizations all of the way through the decline and fall of the Roman Empire (
), American history from the colonies all of the way through the Civil War, and World War 2. I also love military history.
I'm always hungry to learn more. Ancient Chinese history interests me, as well as Indian history (the country) since we only touched on them briefly in class. I have a small mountain of books here that I haven't even cracked the covers of yet. With more being added every month.
I also want to write about history. Nothing major at first but I wouldn't mind dabbling in something to get my feet wet. I've been bouncing around the idea of researching and writing about the beginnings of Rome to the point where it became a republic. I just worry about overwhelming myself.
