Kevin Adams - Class and Race in the Frontier Army 1870-1890 - Kevin
Adams is a historian at Kent State. Kevin's new study of the late
nineteenth-century frontier U.S. Army explores the lives of the
enlisted men and officers through the prisms of race, class, and
ethnicity. It is a fascinating study that considers whether the
physically isolated frontier army was really that separated from
the rest of American society. His first book is Class and Race in
the Frontier Army: Military Life in the West, 1870-1890 () If
there’s anything that we can’t get enough of, it’s smart people.

book, listen to this episode, and hey, you may create some new
