Dr. Totten’s History Blog Launch!

Greetings fellow history lovers! My name is Dr. Eric Paul Totten, I am a scholar of the Civil War Era and Global Military History, and I teach college level history courses at several fine institutions across the great state of Arkansas. This is my first post and I am very excited to announce the launch of my new blog and my upcoming podcast devoted to bringing history in an accessible and entertaining format to the public. This blog and podcast will endeavor to avoid modern politics with a ten-foot clown pole and focus on the fascinating events of human history, warts and all. In the coming weeks, I will post blogs covering book reviews, historical method, and primary sources to immerse readers in how to practice the art of historical research. I will endeavor to make this site an inclusive space of intellectual exchange that will hopefully amuse and educate any who are interested. I appreciate constructive criticism from all who follow this site, though inappropriate comments or conduct will not be tolerated. Thank you one and all who supported me through this lengthy process, God bless you all.
