I Love History

Yes I am a lover of history and this site just makes me love it even more. I have a greater appreciation for early photography now too thanks to this site. Just thank me now before you even click the link. Trust me. ;-) I'd love to know what you think!

    Thanks for sharing this link, Renee. I write historicals set in the Victorian era, and these pictures are creativity fuel. OK. I'll admit some of them also made me drool. =)

    I use historic photographs when I write my stories and have the ones of my current hero and heroine on my writing desk at this very moment. My hero is gorgeous. He'd make a great addition to that site, but I'm not sure I'm ready to share him yet. *wink*

    Love it! When I was scrolling through, and came to the photo of the two Russian Grand Dukes, I thought to myself, "That looks like Russian Grand Dukes." Nice to know I was right!
