No, Russian and Soviet history in general. My disertation was on the role of the 1905 revolution, WWI and WWII played in the reforms by Nicholas II and Stalin. With that came a lot of study of the 1939 Army Purge and the release of many of the officers once things got really bad in late 41 and early 42 as well as the release from the gulag of others to take part in the war effort. Yes, I know I'm a nerd.

I just dabble in gun control and the second amendment.
