Genealogist & recovering academic historian; focus is the antebellum North & Early Republic. I approach the past as a humble pilgrim, not as a hanging judge.

“Men have sacrificed and crippled themselves physically and emotionally to feed, house, and protect women and children. None of their pain or achievement is registered in feminist rhetoric, which portrays men as oppressive and callous exploiters.” – Camille Paglia

Yesterday I happened upon a CD series that I'd never heard of. The Smithsonian's American Songbook Series comprises 24 CDs, featuring the songs of Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, Duke Ellington, etc. Issued from 1992-94, it's long out of print. I picked the whole thing up for $6.

William Nicholson painted the small fishing village of Shingle Street which stands at the south end of Orford Beach in Suffolk in 1908. On the left can be seen a Martello Tower and a cluster of fishermen's cottages around the Life Boat Inn, the white, gabled building.

My parents used to tell me about 'the mad artist' David Hockney, who pushed his pram around Eccleshill loaded with easel and paints. He would have been painting 'Bolton Junction' as it was midway between the homes where they grew up.

The British Empire perfected the balance between the Roman and Germanic character – uniting Roman order, discipline, and military prowess with Germanic fervour, industriousness, and fearless exploration.
