About meI'm a high school History/English teacher living in the Canadian north. My family always had books as I grew up, my father being a voracious reader of history and westerns, and I naturally fell into the pattern, though I missed on the love of dusters.
About my libraryI've been collecting and coveting books for most of my life and still have many that I've had since I was a teenager. Most of my non-fiction library is ancient and medieval history with a bit of natural history thrown in for good measure. I used to read a great number of fantasy novels, of which I've kept a significant number - the reasonably good ones. I still have a weakness for hard science fiction and a love of historical novels.
I'm about a quarter of the way through tagging my books at this point.
