History then becomes a series of facts and the everyday experiences of ordinary people are lost. I know I felt I had lost a huge part of my history when hen my grandmother died. <br />I looked forward to your posts. They covered a wide range: Jack in the Green, ballet, lost treasures, all written in -depth and memorable and informative. <br />You will be missed but thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Canada and Mexico, and the latter is seen as more of a problem than a "neighbor." In a country as big as ours is, it's easy to forget we are part of a global community. Our problems tend to divide us as people look inward, instead of outward, for causes.<br /><br />I think this is why historical fiction is so important as a genre; as you said, it personalizes these events, makes them more immediate and more intimate. <br /><br />Good bye, and good luck with your future endeavors!Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08508302421134951238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-87916167875535966762014-06-12T07:44:26.643+01:002014-06-12T07:44:26.643+01:00How touching and accurate this post is, Harriet.

Here in France as the power of Le Pen rises, this nation, or those who wish to see France rid of Arabs, has forgotten or barely ever admitted the contribution the Maghrebians, the north Africans, played fighting with the Allies. Algeria was a vitally important base for the Allies. It helped keep the Mediterranean in the hands of the Allies. Yet today, I see the appalling disrespect shown here towards these Arab and Berber peoples who were valiant supporters and whose relatives gave their lives for France. <br />Lest we forget, indeed….Carol Drinkwaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837854482139736944noreply@blogger.com
