I ...I will be glad to give you any recommendations! I have always liked history but it was not until the last couple years that I began reading it almost exclusively. There are so many things I want to learn about still, I feel like there is no way I will ever be able to read every book on my TBR.

If you take a look at past posts some time, you will probably notice a theme when it comes to this author...<br /><br />Summer library trips are the best. Our library system is huge, I think there are 12 or 14 locations around the entire city/metro area. We have our favorite, but it is nice to be able to go to a different library every day if we wanted to. And yes, on occasion that happens.

On my blog I'm featuring a sweet historical fiction trilogy, but right now (and for the past several months), I've been working my way through General Sherman's memoirs for research. Here's the first line: “Nearly ten years have passed since the close of the civil war in America, and yet no satisfactory history thereof is accessible to the public; nor should any be attempted until the Government has published, and placed within the reach of students, the abundant materials that are buried in the War Department at Washington.” (Memoirs of William T. Sherman)Amanda Terohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02755627165871110818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080051275665594538.post-84681220571975346512017-06-02T08:00:43.122-05:002017-06-02T08:00:43.122-05:00I love our history!
