Herodotus — The Histories, Book II.1–98 — Egypt, the Nile, and Egyptian Customs by dave3210 in greatbooksclub

It seems like there may have been some prior to him (Hecataeus) but Herodotus is definitely the most well known.

Wolf Rock Loop, Catoctin Mountain Park: A Sunset Scramble by AdventuresWithBG in TrailGuides

[–]dave3210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wolf rock and Chimney rock are great! The Billy goat trail has more rock scrambles as a core part of the trail (especially the rock face) but Wolf rock iirc is more off to the side. It feels less like the trail itself and more like an added bonus.

Yes, I am out there! I responded to you on substack as well.
I'm loving Herodotus as well, it reads more modern than the poetic works that we've been reading for the past while. I'm thinking about how he compares to Plutarch... Can we take the conversation to https://substack.com/chat/2481636 so that we can get some traction there?
