I WANT TO WRITE HERE ABOUT SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED during and after writing 'A Man Who Seemed Real'. Call it strange, reassuring, disturbing, striking …

I wanted to write about history for a broader audience than the other five people interested in my dissertation topic. I wanted to write for history buffs and nerdy kids and the general intelligent reader. (That would be you, right?)

I feel strongly that the West in general and Americans in particular need to know more about the history of other parts of the world. That belief is often reflected in the topics I choose to write about, whether I'm working on a
