Yep, that's what we history teachers do best!

Seriously, check it out. Ray is a sociologist and her insights on the Scottish-American community are very interesting. You'll find quite a bit of similarities to the reenacting sub-culture, although the book is not as funny as Tony Horowitz's Confederates in the Attic.

*ex-reenactor. I still do some living history now then for USNPS.
