Throughout most of my life, I have been afflicted with the terrible condition of being unable to leave a bookstore (usually Chapters or Indigo) without carrying at least three or four items (plus the usual coffee) that I did not have with me when I entered, or to spend at least half of the money in my pocket (whichever is higher). As such, I have accumulated a large sum of books on military history throughout my life, most of which are now located on one of my three bookshelves or my bedroom floor.

Universities

[edit]

While attending university, I have access to several large-scale university libraries. Because my father is on the faculty of both universities in my hometown, I also have unlimited access to the post-secondary libraries in Calgary.
