This index is designed to be printable on most browsers. Facts are facts. I make every effort to present them accordingly. By the same token, history needs interpretation to be applied. I attempt to stimulate, but not control this for you.
History is laden with controversy.
Perhaps the hardest task for any historian is to maintain objectivity. Still, controversy is not to be avoided, but explored. We study history not to judge it, but to learn from it. After all, times have changed and those who lived before are not here to defend their actions. Again I stress the purpose of our study is to learn from history.
