Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the "add book/author" feature when you are ready to cite a book. (There is a link on the top right of the reply box.) It makes things so much easier for people to see your book recommendations, because they can see the cover and the links to the author. And it helps the Goodreads software connect books with groups that talk about them. When citing a book and/or author, please put the book cover, author's photo and author's link at the very bottom of the post after your text. Because it is on the bottom, it calls the reader's attention to the book/author and increases the readability of your posts.
This is how a book should look:

I have a great love for history, especially modern history and I try to devour all books that I can come across on the subject. Right now I'm reading "Guns Of August"(or "Augusti 1914", which is the name of the swedish edition).
At work, I run a small it-company, and have a background in mathematics,economics and computer-science.
I'm very excited to have joined this group, looking forward to some interesting discussions and some new friends=)
Cheers,
Niklas

my name is Will and I hail from Sacramento, California. I studied European history at UC San Diego and graduated in 2010. I focused on politics and diplomacy. I will be starting my masters at Cambridge fall of 2014 in Modern European History with a focus on German Colonialism. I plan to go on to get my Doctorate. I have been passionate about history since I was young when it began with an interest I military history and grew from there.
I spent a year living in Germany where I became fluent in German.
I look forward to some good discussions and recommendations from this group.
Sincerely,
Will

My name is Eric. I live in Tampa, Florida, USA. My main interest is military history. However, I am interested in all aspects of history.
I'm an avid reader in these areas and have been since childhood. I'm not sure from where my interest originally sparked. It was probably inspired by my mother's interest in her ancestry and my father's interest in WWII, which he participated in as a sailor in the U.S. Navy.
I'm looking forward to interesting intercourse here in this group. Thanks for having me.
Regards,
~Eric

I got my start in history from listening to the family stories and my dad giving me a JFK half dollar and telling me not to spend it. A portrait of JFK now hangs in my home office.
I'm looking forward to interacting with the group.

Hi Lacey,
My dad did the same for me. Unfortunately, I spent mine.
Welcome to the group! I'm newly minted here myself.
Regards,
~Eric
