I have been addicted to history since I was around 9. One of the 1st books I ever purchased was about the worlds greatest battles. As I recall it told the story of different battles from Marathon, to the battle of Hastings, the Civil War all the way to Omaha Beach and the Battle of the Bulge.
Now that we have reached the 150th anniversary of the Civil War I have been enjoying the stories on the History Channel.
I can't wrap my mind around the number of causalities of the different battles. From 620,000 up to 700,00. Over 50,00 at Gettysburg.
