About Tom
Expertise
While it is a huge topic, I am well-versed in World War II generally. There is a huge wealth of information available on the internet, HOWEVER, one has to know the trash from the gems. Many sites which are not obviously credible (govt, university, and museum sites, for ex.), provide erroneous information (intentionally or otherwise).

Experience
BA in history, and been reading and studying WW2 as my 'hobby' for 30 years. Regular contributor to several online forums in military history, WW2, and related areas and topics.

Organizations
None relevant to this topic.

Education/Credentials
BA, History (Secondary Education), with minor in Geography
US Army Engineer Officer (Officer Basic and Advanced Courses)

Subject: Author

Question
Can you help me doing my assignment? My teacher gave me an assignment about authors in thesis form. Can you please give me some authors and past life?

Answer
That's entirely wide open.  There are literally thousands of authors, you can throw a dart on the wall and choose, if you don't have one you already know you like.

Are there no other criteria - like fiction only, or American, or anything at all?  If not, just pick one and it is not hard to find the data about him/her in online encyclopedias or the library of congress or local library.  Ralph Waldo Emerson, Rudyard Kipling, Mark Twain, and on and on.

Think of books your friends or family could recommend as "good" and find the authors for them.

But I may have missed what you are asking...
