Really misrepresented what was happening in terms of the regiment . Well, i think i mentioned that the name hell fighter stuck in part because of the band being representative of the regiment. And it was, it not only was a representative of the regiment that came topsy anonymous with the regiment came to be synonymous with the regiment at some point. In fact, a scholarly book, this person writes that James Reese Europe was the leader of the 369th. Not just the band, but of the 369th. This character and he is supposed to be lean the warrens brother and someone mentioned he won this he wanted to kill me now to have improved core and she wears a and i go into a lot of detail about the symbolism of that bill that is the end of any discussion of a combat role of the 369th.

That is paraphrasing but if blacks couldnt be lawyers, doctors, teachers, etc
Take on what happened but also a look at the politics at the time that made the troops stay overseas in world war ii. Host lissa warren, you mentioned youre an acquiring editor. How long is the process of getting the book on the shelfs to the time you acquire it . Guest its just like having a baby, it takes about nine months from hand you script through the man you script, the copy editing process and then the cover design. I would have, at point, 20 children if i was having babies instead of publicizing books because ive been doing this for 20 books now. To write it, it usually takes a year or two, sometimes three if its a long book or one that requires a lot of research. They are pretty knee deep in evaluating copy edit suggestions that have been made. That can take several weeks. Occasionally a month or two, but we dont always have that long.

The individual, checks and balances, freedom, liberty and so forth. As i said, trying to channel arab nationalism into the western camp into the cold war. Ive in looking at how the United States thought about this and the strategy they developed, ive come to the conclusion that there was a kind of map that the americans had that was above all of their all of their policy discussions. A kind of paradigm. I actually started thinking this way. I worked, if i could give you a personal anecdote, i worked in the white house in the george w. Bush administration. And i had a had come from academia, which i thought prepared me for policy work. And then i went to the white house and realized, actually, it prepared me for nothing. But one of the things that really surprised me was somebody who considered himself an expert. In the middle east. At the highest levels have simple ideas in their head.
