SUMMARY:General Sir John Monash
DESCRIPTION:John Monash was a reserve colonel in the Australian army before World War I\, but once the conflict began\, he would become a full-time army officer. Promoted to brigadier general\, major general and eventually lieutenant general\, he commanded the Australian Corps on the Western Front. Monash was one of the first true advocates of combined arms warfare and had a deserved reputation for taking care of his men\, going as far as to have hot meals delivered to the front lines in the midst of battle. David Mills examines Monash here\, described by British historian A.J.P. Taylor as “the only general of creative originality produced by the First World War.”

SUMMARY:Battle for the Marble Palace: The Forging of the Modern Supreme Court
DESCRIPTION:Author Michael Bobelian returns to the Dole Institute to explore a forgotten battle of 1968. Against a backdrop of the Vietnam War\, riots during the Democratic National Convention and the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy\, Abe Fortas was nominated to be chief justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. The ultimately failed nomination would launch an all-out cultural war between the two major political parties — one that would determine the course of major cases for years to come. This program includes a book sale and signing with the author.
