I am well versed in general historical literature from the ancient realm; dealing with the Greeks, Gauls, Britons, the Holy Roman Empire and others. I can help you with questions in the more modern era as well including the age of industrialization, the fall of socialism, the red scare era and general military history. If you like we can also get into some historical controversies and "what if" scenarios. Not only will I answer your questions but I will also provide you with excellent literature in which to further your knowledge.

American History in general. History has been a hobby of mine for umpteen years. Colonial History is what I like the best! I seem to have this "savior complex" due to which I seem to be automatically attracted to people who need my help on a daily basis. Since we are the only critters on the planet, how about joining me? Pleasure and satisfaction are your rewards.
