In todays show we dig into this and we also try and answer the question, why is history important?

We'll be back in two weeks with our next radio Show!

For me, my love of history came from my mother. She was a Librarian who loved English history so the house was full of everything from Saxon history to Victorian. When I went to college I discovered fencing which led directly into historical reenactment and I've been doing that ever since. My passion has been Tudor/Elizabethan costuming and Rennasissance fencing. Nothing is more satisfying than doing the research, reproducing it and then teaching it to someone else.
