American Universities Declare War on Military Hist *LINK*

I knew the teaching of history in our public schools and universities was in decline; however, this article makes it clear that the study of history and specifically, Military History is vanishing. Many years ago, I had a discussion with a family member who is a college professor. I informed her that women were producing some outstanding military histories on the Civil War. Her response was that she was horrified. Her attitude was that to write about military history was being "pro-war" or glorifying war. Honestly, I was speechless.
