Join a lively discussion group focused on history! Members are asked to read a book or article on the monthly topic and be prepared to tell the group about it, or just listen and learn. New members are welcome to join and experience history from many points of view on one topic - no other history book club offers this unique approach!

February Topic:  Sweethearts and Spouses of Notable World Leaders

The topic for February is Sweethearts and Spouses of Notable World Leaders.  Cleopatra and Julius Caesar, Jackie and JFK, Henry the VIII and his many wives, Abigail and John, Elizabeth and Philip.  History is full of leaders, some with spouses that kept to the background, while other love interests were a tour de force in their own right.  Pick a notable world leader but focus on their significant other.
