Townhouse Notes
There is no “happily ever after” in history. Historians study the spectrum of human experience, but so much of history includes an undercurrent of sadness, even heartbreak. War, enslavement, genocide, pandemic—many of the most popular topics in history are those that at their core involve pain, violence, and death. And with history, there is no ending. Even when the book ends, there is something more that comes after.
