Hello, History Friends!! Often, the year 1772 gets skipped in studies of what we at my house call the RevoWar, at least in type, haha! My family is so patient. Sometimes I worry that all I talk about is the stuff I'm learning. Luckily, most of them at least seem interested as well. But let's be honest, what's not to be interested in? I say whoever says history is boring has never actually studied it! The year 1772 started out on a happy note, Jan 1 was the day that Thomas Jefferson married Martha Wayles Skelton. Now, ya'll know that Jefferson isn't my favorite founding father, but I just finished a book about him called Thomas Jefferson: The Art of Power by Jon Meacham. Not to be crazy shallow or anything, but the fact that Edward Hermann (or Richard Gilmore for those of you who half believe Stars Hollow is a real place and part of your identity live there) narrated it, sure helped soften the ordeal. I still don't particularly care for Mr. Jefferson too much,...
