The Modern Historian somehow manages to publish an "On This Day" article that informs and surprises me every single day. A terrific site for the generalist who is interested in virtually EVERYTHING!
Not only it brings useful information pertinent to history, this website will bring traffic to your site through Entrecard placements.
A great way to find out more about history, especially if you are an adult and not in academia anymore, and still want to cram info into your brain!
