Hugh Williamson

I am from the Northeast U.S. I served in the U.S. Coast Guard and then went to college. My interests run to music, nature, Biology, rural life, animals and cars (or anything with wheels or an engine).

Writing isn't really a driving passion of mine but I do enjoy writing a Hub now and then.Of my own work, my favorite Hub is called World War 2 Visits an American Farm which is based on a friend's personal experience. This was told to me many years ago.

My most popular Hub is 10 Brilliant Scientists and Their View of God

My favorite subject to write about is the history of the automobile. My latest Hub in that genre is Cars that Starred in TV Shows -- Can you ID them?

Personal Philosophy? I think we are here to learn, to help others and to enjoy life. Everything else is probably just filler.
