By Colin Woodward

I recently gave a talk in Boston at a conference for pop culture scholars. The subject was Charles Bukowski’s contrarian take on World War II. While I am first and foremost a Civil War historian, there other wars, and aspects of the military experience, that I like writing about. I figured I’d post the paper here: Bukowski paper PDF.
