And a bit more blog community

1. Go visit Mark Grimley’s fine blog, War Historian. Do not be put off by that ‘military historian’ tag. This guy is cool. Take these examples: why he blogs; comparing Abe Lincoln to Bismarck; and some thoughts about relationships between war and society.

2. Mark has also persuaded Laura not only to join him from time to time at War Historian, but also to start her own shiny new blog, Classical Archaeologist. And he’s rounded up some of his graduate students to set up a group blog on the American civil war, Civil Warriors.

Anybody know of any more new history blogs that ought to be on my blogroll?

UPDATE: Suggestions will be added below….

    Oh Sharon. When it’s my turn to do the history carnival and I can do it on my homepage. www.17th-century.info Just as long as everyone can view it. Konrad Lawson from Muninn tells me it can’t be seen in Safari.

    Hi, I’ve been blogging for two years and pursuing an MA in history and finally decided to combine the two with a newish blog, 5th February 2005 at 1:08 am

    Cripes, I hit the enter button….what an auspicious entrance. Anyway, I link to pieces dealing with history and always look out for it being used, misused or overused. Now that I’ve found this fine network of History bloggers, I can’t wait to dig in! Finally, I’d be willing to host a Carnival need be. Thanks for the great work.
