Introduction
ОглавлениеHistory is always relevant. To understand our present and to plan for our future we need, somehow, to relate to our past. We can’t look at everything — it just isn’t possible, but perhaps we can find some doors previously unlocked, some tales almost forgotten. We can look at some chronology that creates a pathway back to the present; we can examine occurrences that remind us that the flow of time was meant to bring growth and change, evolution. This book is an opportunity for all of those things.
A book should be an inspiration. A history book should be an invitation to review, to explore, to reminisce, to discover, to travel, to unravel. I want to take you to the past in your mind and inspire you to visit it in the present. Visit museums. Listen to our elders. Discover the stories behind the places. Learn to question when you travel, to open your awareness to all that was, is, will be, could be.
History is alive. You can see it. Sometimes you can taste it. Often you can feel it. I love it. Let me share it with you.
