Welcome

Welcome to 'Generation History', my name is Stephen Leatherbarrow and am writing this blog for everyone who shares the same passion for history as i do. The past, in my eyes, is crucial for a valid interpretation of today’s society. History is the essence of humanity and it is through the experiences and events of our ancestors that have had a profound effect on our understanding of the world we live in. I will be updating this blog frequently discussing various time periods and addressing the social, political and cultural issues of different eras.
