Post by Elysium » Tue December 7th, 2010, 6:01 pm

I'm Elysium and I'm from Finland. I've been lurking here for some time and finally decided to join :)

I mostly read about Tudors and Wars of Roses but pretty much anything goes.

Welcome Elysium :-)

Are always to be found between the hooves of horses
For never will cowards fall down there.'

Interest in HF: started in childhood with the classics, which, IMHO are HF even if they were contemporary when written.
Favourite HF book: Prince of Foxes, by Samuel Shellabarger
Preferred HF: Currently prefer 1600 and earlier, but I'll read anything that keeps me turning the page.
