Sincerely,
Lena Z.
P.S. This group will begin a book in March. Please send me your suggestions.
I suppose I should go next, then.My name is Manuela, I'm from Portugal and I've been in love with history for as long as I can tell. I'm specially keen on Classic and Medieval history, from a religious/military/cultural/architectural/art/sociological point of view.
I'll be applying for a History degree soon so I'll probably be needing your help in a nearby future.
I'll drop by as often as I can and join in on any discussions.
Cheers,
Manuela

Lena, I am Scott from San Francisco. I too have loved history since I was 5 years old. I unfortunetly won't be able to join you reading a certain book but I will add whenever I can. I love military history from 1750 to present and have visited 90% of all the American Revolutionary and Civil War battlefields. I am a Napoleonic Reenactor and take part in the Bicenteniarries going on in Europe.

I'm a 6th grader and I am 11 years old (if anyone wants to know).I have read a lot of history (inclulding greek mythology) books (adults NOT kids).

The Battle of Salamis is a good place to start!:)

I'm Hannah and I'm a college student at NYU Gallatin concentrating in European and American Warfare in the 19th and 20th Centuries: Politics, Strategy, Society, Art. Yeah, basically my concentration is all about war, how it comes about, and how it affects everyone involved.
Greetings, all. I am Brooke C. Stoddard, a writer living in northern Virginia. My special interests are Ancient Egypt, Classical Greece & Rome, Great Britain, early U. S. republic, Civil War & Reconstruction, Depression, and WW2.
Greetings,I'm Sarah, and I enjoy reading history books about many different eras, but American Civil War and Napoleonic Era are my top-favorites. I love doing research and share my love of history through writing and living history.
Hello,My name is Lyndsey. I'm a SAHM of three boys ... So I have loads of driving and housework and laundry! Haha! And I'm always doing it listening to audio books (and podcasts). Currently in NH, but my heart is in Suable Beach Ontario.
My preferred genre is "history" both non-fiction and fiction. But I always joke that I like "good" books. I do read other things from time to time ;)
I definitely lean towards European women prior to 1800. But also adventure/survival stories. (Explorers etc.) Not too big on US history. But like I said ... If it's "good" I'm game ;)
Hopefully I can find some new favorites and provide some recommendations as well. :)
I'm also a big historical clothing dork ...
This is JR Sharp,If your interested in a true life story about how an Italian family survives WWII, this is the book for you to read. It brings out an area that most people don't understand, which is the plight of the Italians that were against the war from the beginning.
