A proposito di questo titolo

Adrian Brettle left the College in 1990 before achieving a first class honours degree from Pembroke College, Cambridge in 1994. He went on to gain a PhD in American History at the University of Virginia.


Highly respected in his field of the American Civil War, Adrian has been widely published in conference papers, journals, books and across social media. He even has a museum exhibit in the American Civil War Museum in Richmond, Virginia. Currently he is a lecturer at Arizona State University and has just published his first book titled ‘Colossal Ambitions: Confederate Planning for a Post War World’. In it he considers a future in which the Confederates were fighting not just to retain what they had but also to gain their future empire. It was received with extremely positive reviews …’the most unique work on the Confederacy to appear in many years. No other historian has so completely researched and presented the harrowing ways that Confederates envisioned their nation.


In this OA Story, Adrian reflects on a career whose path did not immediately take him into academia and where he considers the opportunities and challenges in his post ‘Colossal Ambitions’ world.
