  1. I'm not an US citizen but I was always interested in British and US history. I learned that history is far more entertaining and surprising than fiction books. History often appears more entertaining and surprising than fiction because of the inherent drama, unique individuals, and unexpected events within the real past, coupled with effective storytelling techniques that historians use to interpret these facts into engaging narratives. These accounts are not only based on verifiable events but also delve into the complex motivations and choices of real people, making the unfolding of events more compelling than many fictional plots.
    I watched the movie Gettysburg (1993) maybe 30 or 40 times and every single time I get sad and even cry watching Americans killing each other. I was raised on the other side of the world but we had US Navy personnel as neighbors – they were helpful warm hearted US families. To imagine killing each other was so absurd! Even more absurd to imagine our black US Navy officer neighbor and his nice family all in chains…made me sick.
