ACADEMIC ARTICLES

©1999-2022 Jim Werbaneth

EDITED BY JIM WERBANETH

Most of the following articles were written for a variety of graduate history and military history courses at American Military University.  They are essentially academic in nature, with their research fully documented and cited according to the Chicago/Turabian format.

Please note that none of these are presented as resources for cheating, as all have passed through TurnitIn already.  Instead, they are presented as research resources for honest students from high school through graduate school, and examples that they can emulate in their own work.
