After the Battle of Hastings, one of my G’Grandmothers (I forget how many generations ago), told William the Conquerer to go get f’d, and defended her castle against him for years. Her husband had died in the battle.

Cool, huh?

That is a great story.

This is why we study history.

To learn from it, and hear about people of character.
