Frightening to think that so many lives were thrown away on the career whims of a few white men. Frightening, but not surprising.

A great read. This is History in the Edward Gibbon style.

This is History in the Edward Gibbon vein: character-driven drama, with a sense of beginning, middle and end, packaged in an emotive and theatrical box that rests upon an underlying sense of a moral tragedy.
