One of our Fellows at the Center for the Study of Tennesseans and War was featured in this past weekend’s Wall Street Journal column, “Five Best”, which usually has a prominent historian or writer suggesting personal choices for the best reading on a particular subject.
Dr. John McManus, professor at Missouri University of Science and Technology and noted author of 11 books of military history, was featured with his choices for best reads on D-Day. Dr. McManus is a UT Ph.D. (he worked with Dr. Chuck Johnson, founder of the Center), and was assistant director of the Center.
