About Me

Richard Geldhof
I'm a storyteller that writes non-fiction stories about the life and times of various people and subjects. I'm a time traveler who puts his readers in the picture as post facto participants to challenge their minds. I've been characterized as a person who is not quite an angel. My halo flickers from time to time because sometimes I ask questions, but it is you and your mind that must provide the answer. It may seem like I'm pulling your chain, but I truly want you to enjoy the journey and expedition of the topics. Together we'll chart a course into the unknowns of history. Be sure to share my thoughts - comments are welcome.
