Introduction I have always loved history; it was the subject in school where everything clicked for me. My real joy and passion in life are to teach teenagers why history isn't boring and why history class is more than just listening to some guy ramble and doing worksheets. I also am very proud of being a West Virginian, so I wanted my first couple of works to focus on my home state. Besides teaching, I am a girls basketball coach, radio play by play announcer for the local high school football team and former rugger during my 20s. I am married with three wonderful kids.
