I have loved 'history' for as long as I have lived; I'd have become a professor of history but for the need to feed my family. I cannot understand how anyone is not interested in the what, when, where and why of the human race. Perhaps instant-communication with its seconds-ago legacy is now "history"? Where's the personal investment in that? I enjoy my computer, professionally and personally but hard-bound printed history texts own my soul.
