VDH Interviews Michael Walsh on his Latest Book Apr 07, 2025

Show notes

Victor interviews essayist, historian, and journalist Michael Walsh on his just released second volume—A Rage to Conquer. Twelve Battles that Changed the Course of Western History—in his envisioned three-volume trilogy on the social, cultural, economic and political consequences of key battles of Western history. Join us for discussions on the status of military history, the brilliance of Western commanders from Alexander and Caesar to Patton and Nimitz, the manner in which battles alter popular culture, and Michael's selection of existential battles that are rarely discussed and unfortunately often ignored. The interview transcends military history and also discusses the challenges of the historian and writer, the need for discipline in taking on large historical projects, and methods of historical research and writing—and what makes a readable military history.
