The Historical Cheat Sheet was created in 1997 to take advantage of the fount of knowledge available on the Internet of historians and historical romance authors. Many fans of historical romance are already history fanatics while others of us have learned more about history from reading history romance than we ever did in school. There is a need to provide additional information to help both history novices and those who are already quite knowledgeable. This is very much a work in progress, and any lover of history is welcome to submit an article.
