It overlaps with journalism closely enough to the point where great history is just great journalism, just long-form. I imagine that aspiring journalists head straight to some technical school when they could do well to supplement some humanities work as well.

I don't regret it, though: the skills and models of higher-level geography and history have been essential in keeping me based rather than basic in 2016.
