@HernanCortes That’d be a fat ass series my dude
Yeah I feared so
I just don’t know where to begin. I think I heard Vox Day mention a series on one of his live streams?
Sounded very good from what I remember but probably very long and expensive
@HernanCortes Is there a particular region or period of interest?
I suppose after the fall of Rome would do
And Western Europe more so than Eastern Europe
This isn't exactly what you're looking for, but it's definitely worth a read.
Looks very interesting, thanks
This is incredibly short, but hilarious. A mix of history/philosophy.

@HernanCortes If you're interested in reading primary sources I could gather a few works in the western canon for you to read. They are probably on PDF. Most contemporaneous accounts from medieval and early modern aren't too long either.
Especially if you're interested in Crusades
Yeah, that sounds like something I would be interested in
After thinking it over for a while, though, I’d like some help finding books on the history of individual European nations/peoples
I have a book on the history of Spain
I’d like to get some on the history of the British isles and France, for example
@HernanCortes
This is a great primer on the ideological and political forces that shaped modern France.
