Hey Clayton,

You look a lot like Ichi. Not too far away from me, either, I might add.

You know, if your goal is write a tome of all history, that's going to be a lifelong project even to read the cliff notes. Do you think you might want to focus on a specific timeframe of a specific people's history?

Well, you won't be the first person to do that, I'd still suggest focusing on one timeframe and place at a time though. That way you can be thorough and don't have to keep coming back on the same topics.

How are we supposed to help you? You have made no specific requests...

Also spamming your own thread wont make you any friends.

To be honest, if your looking for someone to help you write a history of the entire world, i dont think you will find anyone here willing to do that. Ill help you when you get to ww2 Germany though, but that in itself could consist of 19+ volumes..

You do realize, that a 19+ volume series is impossible by one man? Do you understand the simple fact that nobody will buy a book from someone who doesn't have their degree in the field? That means the earliest you can begin, and be taken seriously, is at age 25. A quality book, will take several years to write, edit, and publish. Lets take a shot with 3-4 years. 19 books, at 3-4 years, will take 60-80 years. Add that to the 25 you need to get your degree, and unless you live to 105, are writing non-stop and manage to pump out large, quality books at the rate of one every 3-4 years (which is pretty damn fast), it can't happen.

Honestly, unless you want to be largely dissapointed in the future, I recommend being a little less ambitious, and enter the world of reality. A solid book, in-depth and informative on your favourite field, is the best way to go.

[Elias71]

Have you heard of Will Durant? The author (with the help of his wife) of the Complete History of Civilization series? That man produced 8 books or so (not sure, I haven't read them all), but QUALITY ones in his entire lifetime, and he didn't even do them entirely alone.

19 books, is just asking for either sub-par quality, lack of information, or pocket book sizes.

[clayton ballentine]
