Today, my book Infantry in Battle, 1733-1783, released. Why should you care? It changes the story of 18th century battles by telling the experiences of enlisted and NCOs, not just the officers. Battle looks different when you are enlisted. A thread for the infantrymen. 1/20

Breaking Eisenhower's globe. Roman historians would have had an absolutely field day with this one.

Hope to see some followers at White Plains. You'll find me among the Hessians.

I'm teaching a course on Religious Conflict and Culture from 1400-1800 next semester, and couldn't be more excited. I'm selling it to the students as KCD2 to Napoleon Total War by way of EUIV. More seriously, does anyone know a good undergraduate textbook on the Hussites?

Now you say: AI can create dramatic images of the Revolutionary War, in modern vibrant colors. To that, I respond: find images of human beings who have spent their lives studying the period, using their human brains and hands to reproduce its images. Who should you look for? 1/

Real images of human beings, from the Revolutionary War, seen by human eyes, processed by human brains, and drawn by human hands, are infinitely more valuable than AI produced images could ever be. An American Rifleman, drawn by British officer Richard Mansergh St. George. 1/
