Abstract

In a masterful study Carl Richard explores how the Greek and Roman classics became enshrined in American antebellum culture.

Abstract

This fascinating history explores one of America's earliest counterinsurgency campaigns outside the Western Hemisphere. Few remember that shortly before the end of World War I, the United States sent thousands of troops to Siberia, who remained there for a year and a half to suppress the Bolshevik Revolution. Carl J.

The episode also teaches valuable lessons about the extreme difficulties inherent in counterinsurgency campaigns and
