Welcome to our History Thinklings discussion group. This discussion is for serious students of history who desire collaborate in order to better understand the relationships of individual agency, cultural and religious values and divine providence in history. 

Although other aspects of history are welcome, the primary emphasis here is in the development of western civilization, including church history, American history, modern Europe and Latin America.

Book reviews and notes can be uploaded as "files" and then are available to any members to download for your own use. Conversation can be facilitated by creating new posts in the discussion forum. I have uploaded the first book review on C.R. Boxer's short and delightful history of the early expansion of the Portuguese sea-born Empire.
