Good morning BookTube! I hope everyone had a fabulous Christmas holiday. I know I did. I wanted to share with you my Historathon 2024 Announcement video. This will also include my Historathon 2023 Wrap-Up and a preliminary Historathon 2024 Quarter 1 TBR. Sorry about the delay in the video. I have had some internet issues, but it is up and running now! I hope you enjoy the video. Thank you for watching and as always ... HAPPY READING!!! • Contact Me: • [email protected] • ** Side note - Since the time of filming this video, Debs Raynor, has joined us as a Co-Host. I left the link to her channel down below. Mariana decided to participate in Historathon, but not as a co-host. Sorry for the confusion. • Historathon is a year-long celebration of reading historical nonfiction. The goal is to read, discuss, and spotlight works of history, and to encourage reluctant readers to give history a try. The calendar year will be divided into three-month blocks, with each block focusing on a particular period of time: • Jan-March = Prehistory-500 CE • April-June = 500-1500 • July-Sept = 1500-1820 • Oct-Dec = 1820-Present • To participate, simply read a work of history that falls into the time period for each quarterly segment of the year. Read more if you’d like! Tailor the choices to your interests or try something completely new. • Historathon Side Quests : We will also be encouraging/participating in history-related activities throughout the year, including watching historical films/documentaries, trying historical recipes, listening to historical music, etc. Feel free to join us! • We will be using the hashtag: #historathon2024 • Link to the Historathon 2024 Discord - / discord • COHOSTS • Vin @revenantreads • Erica @passageoftime8561 • Garreth @bookssongsandothermagic • Mark @BookTimewithElvis • Bill @billruttenberg • Fred @ReadbyFred • John David @NicholasOfAutrecourt • Peg @TheHistoryShelf • Debs @RaynorReadsStuff • Books I Mentioned That I Read for Historathon 2023: • Historathon 2023 - 1st Quarter • The Babylonians: An Introduction (Gwendolyn Leick) • Lost Cities, Ancient Tombs (Ann R.
