Historian David McCullough passed away yesterday at age 89. He greatly enriched the scope and study of American history. I read all of his books, and enjoyed meeting him some years back. RIP.

Thanks Jim, I'm a Historian myself, specializing in the Americas during the age of exploration and pioneering.

Right now I am loosely retracing the routes of David Thompson and Alexander McKenzie through the Rockies and rugged mountains of BC.

Mr. McCollough's works look fascinating, so I'll look into them with interest, and I appreciate you bringing this tip to our attention.
