Wolff is usually fantastic but he was wrong on the Revolutionary War and 1812.

The passage that's in that screenshot was changed along with other passages for unknown reasons by the first publisher she sent her book to. It happened to appear on page 666 of my ebook.

I would not, but I figured he'd have like at least a handful of rich backers, not just one.

Yeah Britain was by no means at their peak when the Americans decided to break away. If anything they got way richer and more powerful in the 19th Century.

Also the Americans both started it and lost. The Chapo Spotify ep using a picture of General Brock dying heroically at the Battle of Queenston Heights, I'm assuming to show Britain getting "owned", just shows they don't know their military history.

e: and of course! Britain was still not standing head and shoulders above the other Great Powers at Victoria's coronation, let alone before the defeat of Napoleon and Congress of Vienna. Not territorially, not diplomatically, not economically. Francis II had just created the Austrian Empire, Frederick William III of Prussia was rebuilding from the War of the Fifth Coalition. If anything, 1812 was low point in British continental power, as the Fifth Coalition was dissolved and the Sixth yet to form.

They've all played the Guarma section of RD2, and that's probably the most prominent the Spanish-American War has been in a generation. I'm curious if that's made them believe in the romantic adventure narrative about Rough Riders and San Juan Hill of our grandparents, or if they have a more jaundiced view.
