RECOMMENDED READING II.- POSTING HISTORICALLY
“Perspectives on Foreign Command of U.S. Forces” by Dave at The Glittering Eye.
Dave has been involved in an interesting debate over the international community and American contributions to the commonweal with Joerg of Atlantic Review. In the course of the debate, the subject was raised about foreign command over American troops. Dave has a superb post that traces the modern history of such deployments and their results.
“The New York Times on Iraq, 1993-2005 (Part III)” by Marc at The American Future.
This is the long-awaited third installment of Marc Schulman’s meticulously researched history of editorial position of The New York Times on Iraq. I would single out this series as one of the best contributions a blogger has made to the field of history, one that easily eclipses the efforts of many well-regarded professional historians who also blog. Bravo !
Finally, I would like to note that HNN has added audio streaming of interviews with historians and other scholars to its weekly menu
