I'm not quite sure how I ended up with two separate reviews in the JMH, but I'm very grateful to both @mrfolse1 and @JohnWorsencroft for their generous engagement with my work!

[David Fitzgerald @DavidFitz84]

@JohnWorsencroft @mrfolse1 I'll take it!

Our second new #FirstView article is by @DavidKieran2 at @CSUHistoryGP. The insightful article explores how, in light of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, Americans use veteran's mental health to make sense of wars in the 21st century. Read it here:

Here it is: my profile of Phil Gordon, Kamala Harris' national security adviser, with some thoughts on the "Harris Doctrine" and how Harris's foreign policy might--and might not--depart from Joe Biden's, particularly on the Middle East.

@amyjay401 @SMH_Historians @VMIHistoryDept @ProfBillAllison Hey, I think I recognise that book! Hopefully people found it useful.

How about some weekend MAH reading in preparation for #July4 ? Check out "The Eagle, the Rocket, and the Moon" by @lgoldblatt and Richard Handler or "Support the Troops" by @DavidFitz84 for ways to think about patriotism. https://t.co/p7X1800vEL https://t.co/lRrXlX1mk1

This looks fascinating! Congrats to all. Can't wait to dig in.
