What's This Blog
About?
Fair question. Here I'm placing entries that
introduce and/or summarize the main issues addressed in War Historian.
Or sometimes are just the ones I think are the best. After each
summarizing entry is posted, it will go here. Unlike other entries,
you should read these from the top down. The eventual product will
be an abridged, more tightly--or less loosely--version of my perspectives.
The Interrogation Begins . . .
