[Wallace]

Greetings . My name is Wallace and I live on the West coast of Canada. I read mainly about English and Ancient Egypt. Although I am currently reading about the last Chinese Empress. It all started when I picked up a copy of Stacy Schiffs Cleopatra. I learnt so much that I just had to visit the place. Then King Henry and Anne Boleyn appeared on Wolf Hall so just had to read about them. Having no book shop in out small town one of technologies greatest advances, for me, is the ebook reader. I am pleased to have found you.

[Charles]

Hello, everyone! My name is Charles, I'm from Newcastle upon Tyne in the North of England and am currently living in New York City.

Growing up next to Hadrian's Wall instilled upon me a fascination in history from a young age, being able to walk along the wall and read tablets from nearly 2,000 years ago is something that baffles a young mind!

My areas of interest are (but not limited to): WWI, WWII, the British Empire (especially in Asia), the Roman Empire, Ancient Greece and 19th Century Russia.

Areas I would like to explore: The American Civil War, Alexander the Great, the Ottoman Empire and the French Revolution.

I'm very interested in historical trends and themes that have developed over the centuries. Very open to recommendations and look forward to contributing to group discussions.

Hello! My name is Nancy and I primarily read fiction books but love a good history book every now and then.
Found your group and loved the music history section ... I have a BA in Political Science so am drawn to political history .. especially US presidential biographies.
I belong to other GR groups and have never been able to put the book cover links up using my iphone but may learn that in the future.
I look forward to learning more history from this group.

[Charlie Mosler]

Hello! My name is Charlie and I've always enjoyed history. As long as I can remember I've always been interested in World War II, particularly the Pacific Theater, and the American Civil War. More recently I've also become interested in archeology and the true-life, adventure stories of expeditions to discover the past. I look forward to digging through this club to see what all I can learn from all of you.

[Steve]

My name is Steve Sullman and I am a retired pharmacist living in Massachusetts. I am interested in health history as well as American and European social history, particularly during the World Wars.

[Jeremy]

Hello, my name is Jeremy. Quickly, I was born in the western part of the U.S. though now I live in the Appalachia area of eastern Kentucky. The economy here is bad and good paying jobs are scarce; drug abuse and a poor work ethic are rampant. I am married with two kids and work two jobs to make ends meet. I am enrolled in a community college to expand my career options. Finally, history manifests the best and worst in human nature and, in my humble opinion, is far more interesting than most works of fiction. I have joined this club with the simple intent to broaden my horizons.

[David]

Hello, I'm David.

I'm a 56 year old ex journalist from Liverpool, UK. I'm now working in the charity sector, a scout leader, a musician, a motorcyclist and an avid reader of history, particularly of the medieval period, and some historical fiction.

While I have a particular interest in the civil war which has become known as The Anarchy, and the vast majority of my reading and interest is centred here, I'll happily flit anywhere from 350bc to 1815ad in the pursuit of knowledge, understanding and insight.

I've recently been returning to my texts on the Holy Roman Empire and, particularly, the Thirty Years War. Not so much reading them again but cherry picking chapters here and there to remind myself as I'm planning on spending some time in each of the next few years in Bavaria.

[Vicki, Assisting Moderator - Ancient Roman History]

[Cecília]

Hello everyone, I'm Cecília.

I'm from Brazil and I studied History at university. I imagined, as a teenager, that I would spend the rest of my life studying some amazing topic, but I ended up realising that I love to learn History much more than working with it. The dream career was lost, life went on and somehow I stopped reading History books. That's why I joined this group: to read about History again! in some kind of classroom atmosphere.

I guess my main interest is political history (which I see as guide, a frontdoor.. and not, you know, as the only important stuff).
Spanish Civil War has always been appealing for me.
I'm still trying to find what I don't like, to be honest.

Cheers :)

[Melly]

Hey everyone, I am Melly:)

I live in Florida in the US, and as a kid I read the typical entertaining books most kids read. My dad decided my reading was not substantial enough and marched me down to the library, allowing me to pick what I want but also making me choose a few nonfiction books.

He knew I would read them, and I did. I quickly learned to adore history. My history teachers were boring, but the books I would read were absolutely fascinating. Some of the stories I read was even more entertaining than the fiction books I read - but these were TRUE!

It started my life-long love of history, and my fascination with learning about other cultures, about how other people lived their lives. I am not so much interested in dates, but I am interested in the stories that happened on those dates. I am fascinated by how interwoven history is, about how this one thing that happened on this one day afected what happened this other day years later. About how this one person's childhood affected the trajection of an entire nation and people.

Specific areas of history that interest me more than others:
World War 2
Ancient Rome
Ancient China
The Golden Age of Islam
The History of Spain

Hello, My name is Mel and I joined because your group and your discussions looked interesting as did your reading list. I live in the United States. My interests jump around based on what I think looks interesting, what shows I am watching, and world events. I think a knowledge of history is very important. I didn't as much when I was in school (probably would have ended up a history major if I had) but I do now and have for the past several years.

This seems like a great group to further my understanding of history, share knowledge in a respectful environment, and discuss some interesting books. Take Care everyone!

[Nancy]

Hi - My name is Nancy. I am a public school music teacher by profession, (thus very little time!) but grew up in the household of a history teacher/administrator. I have several areas of targeted interest, but am by no means limited to those parts of history. I read a variety of genres and styles. I've navigated around the group, found some things to explore further, read all the guidelines, have no problem posting covers and author shots. Thanks for such a well structured and broad group.

Based on your introduction, I suggest you check out our homepage and see what we have to offer. You can access the main page through this link:

HBC mainpage

Please take a moment to familiarise yourself with the "add book/author" feature when you comment. (There is a link on the top right of the comment 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.

Good Evening everyone my name is Elizabeth and I'm a history major. I enjoy reading and studying civilizations around the world, from Ancient to current periods.

[Natasha]

Hello! I'm Natasha and I'm from the Midwestern U.S. I am a history student, studying early twentieth century American history. I'm particularly interested in cultural and social history, especially with regards to mass media and film, travel, and consumerism, with further interests in medical and culinary history. I also enjoy reading a wide variety of historical fiction. I look forward to exploring this group!

[Nickie]

Hi I am new to Goodreads. I live in U.S. I joined because I honestly just want to learn more and expand library. I love to read, I have always loved to read. History sparked my interest when I had to take it in college. I don't have a lot of time to read anymore. I have three kids.

[Fjoralba]

Hello! My name is Fjoralba and I come from Albania. I joined this group so I could find recommendations regarding history books. I am open to learning about new cultures and I think there is no better way to do this than by reading history books.

[Sofia]

Hi all,

I am Sofia and I read European history for my studies and for pleasure too. I am also interested in political and economic history of the continent of medieval and industrial period as well as anything related to issues of modernity. Among the authors I love is M. Mazower, G. Agamben and Z.Bauman.

Thank you :)
