AVAILABLE FROM Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402 ($6.50). EDRS PRICE MF02/PC20 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *History: military Personnel: *Military Science: *Military Training: Study Guides ABSTRACT This study guide On military history is intended for use with the young officer just entering upon a military career. There are four major sections to the guide. Part one discusses the scope and value of military history, presents a perspective on military history; and examines essentials of a study program. The study of military history has both an educational and a utilitarian value. It allows soldiers to look upon war as a whole and relate its activities to the periods of peace from which it rises and to which it returns. Military history also helps in developing a professional frame of mind and, in the leadership arena, it shows the great importance of character and integrity. In talking about a study program, the guide says that reading biographies of leading soldiers or statesmen is a good way to begin the study of military history. The best way to keep a study program current is to consult some of the many scholarly historical periodicals such as the "American Historical Review" or the "Journal of Modern History." Part two, which comprises almost half the guide, contains a bibliographical essay on military history, including great military historians and philosophers, world military history, and U.S.

  • Austin Bryan Dr
    Subversive Patriots Austin Bryan Dr. Robert Slayton HIST 498 5/11/2021 1 Presidential historian Jon Meacham recently stated that “history [...] has a wonderful way of changing how we view things. In real time, people or events that are dismissed or derided can come to look better and loom larger in retrospect.”1 Such a historiographical lesson is perhaps indispensable in evaluating the merit of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade’s commitment to fighting fascism in Spain; particularly given the lack of contemporary support from democratic nations. In more earnestly considering the perspective of these early American anti-fascists, it becomes clear that much of their commitment to preserving Spanish democracy can be drawn from their own objections to the political and social climate of America at the time. The service and writings of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade (ALB) expressed discontentment with American politics through the 1930s and ‘40s, and a desire for change. Namely, these grievances are best understood through the issues of racial injustice, isolationism, and the lack of political and social tolerance for left-leaning ALB veterans within the US military. It is commonly accepted today that the allied effort in the Second World War was an absolutely necessary and righteous rejection of Nazism, Italian fascism, and Japanese imperialism. What’s less commonly considered is the pre-war reluctance, throughout the 1930s, of democratic Europe and the United States to oppose the territorial expansion, and military buildup, of fascist European regimes. The notion of negotiating with Hitler appears, with historical hindsight, akin to madness. The hard lessons learnt from Munich, however, prove that within the contemporaneous political landscape, appeasement, and tangentially non-intervention, were considered reasonable policies to the end of avoiding another calamitous war.

  • Howard Fast, 1956 and American Communism PHILLIP DEERY* Victoria University, Melbourne
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Victoria University Eprints Repository 1 Finding his Kronstadt: Howard Fast, 1956 and American Communism PHILLIP DEERY* Victoria University, Melbourne The scholarship on the impact on communists of Khrushchev’s “secret speech” to the 20th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in 1956 is limited. Generally it is located within broader studies of organisational upheavals and ideological debates at the leadership level of communist parties. Rarely has there been analysis of the reverberations at the individual level. Consistent with Barrett’s pioneering approach, this paper seeks to incorporate the personal into the political, and inject a subjective dimension into the familiar top-down narrative of American communism. It will do this by focusing on the motivations, reactions and consequences of the defection of one Party member, the writer Howard Fast. It will thereby illuminate the story of personal anguish experienced by thousands in the wake of Khrushchev’s revelations about Stalin. The Defection On 1 February 1957, the front-page of the New York Times (NYT) carried a story that reverberated across the nation and, thereafter, the world. It began: “Howard Fast said yesterday that he had dissociated himself from the American Communist party and no longer considered himself a communist”.1 The NYT article was carried by scores of local, state and national newspapers across the country. Why was this story such a scoop and why was it given

This volume was initially released by our Indian comrades from Kranti Publications in 1991, but was out of stock by the end of the 90s and has since been unavailable in hard copy or online. This volume covers the period from the founding of the People’s Republic (October 1949) until the Great Leap Forward (1958) and contains 478 doc- uments that are not included in the “Official” Volume V of the Selected Works that covered this period. While the “Official” Volume V gave us access to documents reflecting Chairman Mao’s philosophy, as well as his ideas regarding the development of the economy, this volume is mainly composed of his letters and telegrams showing all the difficulties that the chairman of the newly founded People’s Republic of China had to face, including the danger of imperialist aggres- sions as seen during the Korean War (1950-1953), the delicate situation of national minorities in Xinjiang and Tibet and the complexity of diplomacy.
