Life is Otherwise Fine

Good, productive day. War Historian gets more and more visitors and more attention. Sharon Howard of Early Modern Notes was nice enough to tell the historical blog community:

And a bit more blog community

1. Go visit Mark Grimley’s fine blog, War Historian. Do not be put off by that ‘military historian’ tag. This guy is cool. Take these examples: why he blogs; comparing Abe Lincoln to Bismarck; and some thoughts about relationships between war and society.

2. Mark has also persuaded Laura not only to join him from time to time at War Historian, but also to start her own shiny new blog, Classical Archaeologist. And he’s rounded up some of his graduate students to set up a group blog on the American civil war, Civil Warriors.
