Use the history book to predict events here-and-there, so that
they know you're serious... Enjoy the world like a god!



Actually, all you need in most cultures and times would be an
astronomical
almanac. Predicting eclipses and so on would get you all the respect you
needed.


Assuming you really knew the time and date.


The almanac idea might work. The history book might provide some
surprises. How well do we really know history that far back?

And I would *NOT* use an almanac to be sure I was on the winning side
in a war - I'd use it to make sure I was no where close.
War was *really* hell back then.
