About

I’m just a guy who loves history. A love instilled in me by my parents who were born in Detroit in the 1920s. They were of the World War II Generation; my father served overseas while my mother served on the home front. After the war Mom and Dad became teachers and continued teaching until retirement. They taught me the importance of education; not just formal education but education gained through the continuous pursuit of knowledge.
