Howdy neighbor!

This week, we’ve an interesting one to consider, all tied up in the recent affairs of European politics. Not current European politics, of course — far too messy for me! — but rather some historical reflections having to do with world news. Despite our scenic remove here among the wooded foothills of western Maine, the affairs of the wider world do at times press close upon us, and in these times very interesting stories can be told.
