Crucial to this process was […]

    Episode 147: The Court Packing Crisis

    In 1937, American politics was gripped by President Roosevelt’s court packing plan.

    Episode 146: Black Labor in Boston

    The historian Henry Adams once wrote that, “the American boy of 1854 stood nearer the year 1 than to the year 1900.” Changes during that period were indeed profound in Adam’s home town of Boston.

    Episode 142: World War I and the Hapsburg Empire

    The Hapsburg Empire was founded in 1282 (or 1526, depending on who you ask) and lasted until 1918. Despite its increasingly antiquated and illiberal tendencies, it survived the reformation, the thirty years war, the enlightenment, the age of Revolution, the revolutions of 1848,  and the Austro-Prussian war of 1866 — but not World War I.
