Memory Pack by Andi Bell

Hi Josh. Can you explain more in details about memorizing history by Andi Bell?

Unfortunately, I let someone borrow the book and they ran off with it. :(

I don't think that he went into much more detail than what I mentioned above. You would create 10 loci for each century and then place important events in each locus...

GARY's RESPONSE: Josh, I also have Andi Bell's MEMORY BOOK (71 pages) and your recall is right concerning his take on History Dates.

He also has a system for remembering CHESS MOVES. Pretty impressive.

Hey Josh,

As it happens, I have an extra copy of Andi Bell's book. If you'd like me to mail it to you, let me know.

Thanks for the offer. I sent you a message... :)

@ Josh Cohen
