Dave Rear is a writer and lecturer who has spent his life reading, writing, and talking about history. While he hasn't time-travelled yet, it would be a convenient way to make him vanish. He lives in Tokyo with his wife and two kids, who – by law – are required to read all his books. They also wish he could time-travel.
