Historical Confessions
Where history geeks share their secrets
I’ve always wondered what would have happened if Leon Czolgosz had been accepted as an anarchist and had gained friends. Would McKinley have lived for the rest of his term or would someone else have shot him?
I wish I could go back in time and be one of Teddy Roosevelt’s grandchildren.
I wish I knew what happened to the people from the Roanoke Colony.
I have an inappropriate amount of affection (not lust, mind you) for John Wilkes Booth. I have to explain to people that I do not condone his ideals or his shooting Lincoln—I just find him really interesting.
I have always been fascinated by Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt… I wish I could go back in time and just spend at least a day or two with them.
This blog makes my lust for Alexander Hamilton and Bobby Kennedy not feel so weird. I no longer feel alone. Thank you!
It amazes me sometimes how ahead of his time Benjamin Franklin was.
I often find myself pitying Richard Nixon. For a man to become President and have to give that all up because of his own bad decisions. He wasn’t this soulless monster… he was just seriously misguided.
I want to play with President Johnson’s earlobes.
I’ve always thought John F. Kennedy’s voice was sexy.
