History : (94) " I don’t think you can separate a place from its history. I think a place is much more than the bricks and mortar that go into its construction. I think it’s more than the accidental topography of the ground it stands on. " - Alan Moore " I was born in England and went to school there. That’s when I discovered my undying passion for history – not just for the Middle Ages, but all periods of history. My favorites are medieval, Elizabethan, and Georgian; however, I’ve written stories set in periods as early as ancient Rome, right up to the Victorian era. " - Virginia Henley " In France, history is paralyzing. " - Jean Paul Gaultier " Personally, my interest in social history ends around 1959, by which time I was an adolescent.

" - H. W. Brands " Our youngsters are not aware about the history of our heroes like Hari Singh Nalwa, Baba Banda Singh Bahadur, Madan Lal Dhingra, Baba Baghel Singh, the details of Gadar lehar and the heroes involved in this lehar who sacrificed their lives, Kama gata maru movement and much more. " - Gurpreet Ghuggi " Furthermore, the study of the present surroundings is insufficient: the history of the people, the influence of the regions through which it has passed on its migrations, and the people with whom it came into contact, must be considered. " - Franz Boas " So often, we don’t realize that the very moments in which we live become our history, our story. " - Deborah Wiles " The drag culture in the States is very rich and has a lot of history behind it. " - Violet Chachki
