About meI am a technical writer at a really, really big software company in Redmond, WA. I've been a tech writer for about 16 years and involved with high tech/software for almost two decades. Before I got a real job, I was a theology student, before that I was a history major. History has been a major love since my youth. I owe that to my father, who gave me a sense of the adventure of past times, and to Sir Winston Churchill, whose History of the English Speaking Peoples remains one of the best adventures in reading that I can recall from my youth.

About my libraryMy library is mostly history and mostly military history. I have a smattering of poetry and literature, but the books I buy and keep are non-fiction. My experience as a kid waiting weeks or months for something to come by interlibrary loan taught me that the only way to get a book is to buy it.

Thank you for adding me to your "interesting libraries" list. Yours also looks good, especially your section on ancient warfare (one day I will get Pritchett...). I'll keep an eye on it.
Kindest regards,
Romanus
Nice library yourself. And a wargamer to boot
The wishlist just keeps getting bigger!
Thank you for your interest in my library. I see you're an reader of Ancient History,I may be hitting you up for some recomendations. :)

Hi Dave
Well you obviously have good taste in books! Whiles looking around LT, let me recommend some folks with interesting libraries: Donogh, Macbeth, OldSarge, rudel519, & Shrike58.... why rudel's floors don't collapse, I'll never know.
Cheers, A
