All historical references, especially American history
In the summer of 1991, I went to Cambridge, England for a UCLA Summer Program. We lived for three weeks in Trinity Hall College (founded in the 14th Century to train canon lawyers), Trinity Hall, Cambridgeand were able to take one of four different courses, taught by dons of the various colleges. I took a …
For the past few months, I have been reading Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series of novels, about a nurse after World War II, who falls through standing stones in Scotland, and lands 200 years in the past.
