study of history
very good point
we had in college ..a prof and i dopey enough thiink this elective 'd be a no brainer as I loved history thne world geography ..actually skip the history guy and stay scottish point
was another "easy" 4.0 //cept for part he was ex WW2 Naval Intellignce officer and had no compunction assigning quads of world to study ..main benefit he showed me john prebble's books explained how prebble wrote about scotland and how much to learn ..being you wnat to write about Glencoe ..start 1000 years before ..1000 not 100 not 1 ..start writing there and lead up to the story of an hour and change's chaos on one cold February night in 1692 .
you learn ..any investigator judge ..detective how har dit is to put together "truth" ..let alone from eyewitnesses ..
I'M WATCHING A BBC SET IN LIBERRY BEING 10 DICS ..MUCH LESS PAINFUL THAN KEEPING TRACK OF MACKIE BOOK ..THINK I DID TRANTER TOO ..PREBBLE I FIND EASY BUT ORGANIZED AND LONG BUT YOU WIND UP CLEAR .
