Last Friday Jeremy Black visited the Mershon Center and gave a couple of presentations — an informal round table discussion of two of his books, Rethinking Military History (2004) and Introduction to Global Military History (2005); and a somewhat more formal lecture entitled, “Could the British Have Won the American War of Independence?” (I say “somewhat” because as far as I can tell, Black spoke without notes.)
I was present for the round table discussion but had to miss the lecture because I was giving a presentation of my own elsewhere on campus. But not to worry: through the miracle of streaming video it’s available to all of us. (It’s a 90-minute presentation — including the Q & A that followed — in .rm format.)
