About:

This blog is dedicated to history and the humanities, and is designed to inspire you to try new things: interests, books, music, even places. I operate with two guiding principles:
1) History, classical music, libraries, museums, etc, are filled with life and tell their stories of human passions; and
2) Everyone can be be more connected to each other, and the great web of humanity in which we find ourselves, by exploring these subjects.
