Scotty S asked:


Like many people, I wasn’t really that interested in World History when I learned it the first time. I learned it because i HAD to. Now, I want to re-learn it because I want to.

Are there any suggestions for World History books that will not only educate…but maybe be a bit “pleasurable.” I’m not looking for anything really opinionated either.

Thanks in advance.

AmO asked:


What is the best AP study guide to use in conjunction with my textbook, “Traditions and Encounters”? The two main books people seem to recommend most are Barron’s and Princeton Review. Of those two, which do you prefer/like best to use? I’m also currently taking the AP World History class at school also. Thanks for your help.

shelman23 asked:


I love History but don’t want to really teach it, I would also love to find some sort of group that discusses World War 2 History So I can listen and learn and argue with others who find that whole period of World History as fascinating. (Terrible run-on sentence I know!) I would like a website or a chat room or something. I also live in Sacramento, CA and would be willing to travel an hour or so to meet people interested in this. And please no smart-a** answers please. I have been to college, and it just doesn’t cut it.
