About Us

Reason for this blog.

The idea for this blog came about right after my own child started attending Secondary school and started studying history. One thing that became clear pretty quickly was that there was a large range of topics to be covered and that time is very limited. 

The aim for this blog.

While there are great repositories of knowledge on online, most of them seem to go almost too far with the amount info that they provide.The aim of this blog is about giving the visitors such as parents and students a small summary about the subject at hand without having to go through massive amounts of data.
