Areas of Expertise My scholarly interests span four inter-related fields: Military history, cultural history, U.S. foreign affairs, and American politics. My scholarly publications focus on understanding the effects of the U.S. military on American society, U.S. foreign policy, and the world in the 20th century.

William Faulkner NOT EVEN PAST Tweet 3 Like THE PUBLIC HISTORIAN An Architectural History of Garrison Hall Making History: Houston’s “Spirit of the by Henry Wiencek Confederacy” As students and faculty members resume their classwork at Garrison Hall this semester, it is worth examining the iconic building’s colorful history and architectural conception. The first stages of Garrison’s development began in 1922 as the Board of Regents sought a new campus plan for the university. Although the Board had been employing the eminent New York City architect Cass Gilbert—whose achievements include the U.S. Supreme Court building, the Woolworth Building and various state capitols —pressure from local architects to patronize a Texas firm resulted in Gilbert’s termination. Subsequently, the University hired Herbert M. Greene of Dallas, James White of Illinois and Robert Leon White of Austin, who collaborated on a 1924 campus plan that included the future Garrison Hall. May 06, 2020 More from The Public Historian BOOKS America for Americans: A History of Construction began in 1925 and finished the following year, producing the 54,069 square foot edifice at a Xenophobia in the United States by cost of $370,000. Initially known as the “Recitation” building the new structure eventually borrowed its Erika Lee (2019) name from George Pierce Garrison (1853–1910), the history department’s first chair and a founding member of the Texas State Historical Association.
