- About My Library
- Mostly comprised of history and the classics. Most modern fiction authors just don't appeal to me.
- About Me
- Just your average history and literature nerd, and proud of it!
My main focus in history is the Italian Renaissance, and I'm a proud member of the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA). It gives me a good excuse to read obscure renaissance literature and text books. - Memberships
