		<description><![CDATA[Another powerful piece of historical fiction from Geraldine Brooks, Caleb&#8217;s Crossing is the story of Caleb Cheeshahteaumuck, the first Native American to graduate from Harvard in 1665.  The narrator is Bethia Mayfield, resident of Great Harbor on Martha&#8217;s Vineyard, who has some basis in the original settlers of the island, the Mayhews. But, as with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I think the irony of the Civil War is that there was rarely a time when people either North or South were very happy with their government.  The Confederacy tried to unite states who were seceding from the Union because they did not want to be united, a paradox that haunted them while in the [...]]]></description>

It is a beautiful Sunday morning at the farm and I was checking in on my online classes so, since I&#8217;m tethered, I thought I&#8217;d do a quick farm update.  This weekend was all about the chickens.  We had [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I finished Lies My Teacher Told Me: Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong by James Loewen. I read the first edition, published in 1995.  I was particularly taken with his description of the more recent past and how poorly books address it: that &#8220;recent past&#8221; in 1995 was my own childhood: Vietnam, the energy [...]]]></description>

While it didn&#8217;t offer specific dates and times like a textbook would, it provided a human view of the time and, as Tim pointed out, [...]]]></description>

I found it easy to use and I mostly work in the cloud anyway but it wasn&#8217;t my air.  Plus I found myself missing the comfort of my desk and office. [...]]]></description>

I have seen the television series so can&#8217;t really get Paul Giamatti out of my head, and it appears that he did a good job of portraying Adams: plain spoken, intense, impatient. In talks I [...]]]></description>
