My goal is to use classic literature to better understand history ,
Literature allows a person to step back in time and learn about life on Earth from the ones who walked before us. We can gather a better understanding of culture and have a greater appreciation of them. We learn through the ways history is recorded, in the forms of manuscripts and through speech itself.
In ancient times, families would pass down stories by firelight

I hope you enjoy the stories we hear and the fun little research projects I record

    Maigret goes home

    At the crack of dawn, on a raw morning, Chief Inspector Maigret finds himself in the church of Saint-Flacre, the village where he was born and raised. Two weeks before, a note had warned the police that at the first Mass on All Souls' Day a crime would be committed. This is a masterful tale of aristocrats fallen on hard times and of a profligate son who in the final hour finds unexpected strength of character.
