Firstly, I just wanted to say how nice it is being a lady of leisure. Slightly scary after so much intensive work, but enjoyable

Gettysburg- the book the film was based on.

Ooh, I think I heard about the film. Is it historically accurate?

Ooooh, I can rec some books! Have you read the Lymond Chronicles or the House of Niccolo by Dorothy Dunnett? They're just incredible, beautiful, brilliantly intelligent, emotional, and historic. They're set in the Renaissance. They make me cry sometimes. They're probably more angst than pathos. Angst is my thing. :D

Can you tell I'm enthusiastic?

Just a bit ;)

Thank you for the rec, those sound exciting :)
