Yes being an unashamed Englishman (regardless of the close proximity to Wales), I obviously went to school here. Whether I was educated is somewhat open to question.

My understanding of the American civil war (bearing in mind I was taught more Russian history than American) is one of it being primarly slavery driven - an understanding my son was also taught. The wife, on the other hand (a few years my junior), hardly scratched the surface of American history - but that's all down to government policy (which I have no intention of boring you with).
