this book is to be neither an accusation nor a confession, and least of all an adventure

for death is not an adventure to those who stand face to face with it

it will try simply to tell of a generation of men who, even though they may have escaped shells, were destroyed by the war

intro. howdy! welcome to my page. im ethan, but my alias online tends towards chase or francis. im an artist with a passion in the liberal arts, namely in history - with my special interest being american history! im a very sociable guy, but i am also rather forgetful and busy, so i apologize for any delayed or absent replies.

by the way. i love, love, love to talk about history, and i love infodumping. if you ask me one question, know you will probably get a lesson. xoxo.

please note that. i have several diagnosed disorders, with some of them being bipolar and gad. please be patient, as these can sometimes incapacitate me, to an extent.

xtra. i find the kennedy's to be super interesting, if you can't tell. hah. if you like them hmu so i can show you my memorabilia!!

byi. im autistic so tonetags help if i dont know u too well. but idc either way. since im consequently pretty bad w social cues i tend to overthink so... pity me a lil. spare ya boy from any subtleties.

disclaimers. ok i dont have a set dni but keep in mind i am a very strong leftist. you might not like talking to me if you are a radical right-winger; sorry not sorry. but i also might be a dick to u if you are a proshipper, a bigot, a fascist, etc. just be normal and idc
