 I was born in 1983, 22 years old. Grew up outside of Boston, MA. I really liked the Alamo movie as a little kid, and we had Ken Burns' Civil War book lying around, I so I always flipped through it and stared at the pictures for hours.

I didn't really get into it until freshman year of college when I took a class about the Civil War in literature now. I wrote a fourteen page paper defending Longstreet's actions at Gettysburg, and I was pretty much hooked at that point.
