One thinks England was all fields and happy farmers. On the other hand the commercialization of American preservation is similarly unsettling. Distortions aside, for money history can and will be changed with little thought. People except museums and historic sites as reputable sources and often don’t question what is presented to them. This can be very dangerous at site that is run for more enterprise than education.Brenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15069542127369356374noreply@blogger.com
