History is a living, breathing map of humankind.
It leads you down paths where discovery of mystery, inquiry, stories, fables, myths and legends are a given.
I read and write History because it serves as a Refuge for my Soul.
It is a place full of Wonder that I am keen to share with others.

You may just discover that it is merely the clothes we wear that differentiates us from the Past.
Maps of Inquiry.
These maps of inquiry and discovery are my contribution to a revival of Classical History and the Classics in a broader sense.
This is a Timeline project, so it is only fitting that we look around every corner.
I invite you to visit whatever sparks your curiosity:
Dispatches from Time - where we talk of books and letters from Once Upon a Time; open the pages of Shakespeare, Tolstoy, the Brothers Grimm (to name a few); visit poets; be greeted by knights and ladies; share in devilish intrigues of heroes and villains.
Ancient Rome and Antiquity - her greatness, virtues and vices.
Commonplace - quotes and sayings that were a valued practice in the ancient and medieval times.
Why Politics Matters - seeing political life from historical views and assessing why it still matters today.
I look forward to connecting with you at some point on the Timeline!
