10 Questions for Geoffrey C. WardBrian King | September 13, 2007 | 0 comments | Print | E-mail 7. ACG: Do you see any unifying threads or themes in the history you’ve written about or the historical subjects you’ve put on film? In your opinion, are there any overarching lessons that the past can teach us today?
8. ACG: How do you craft your work (in books and film), such as The War, in order to reach a broad audience with varying backgrounds and interests?
9. ACG: The readers of Armchair General magazine are particularly interested in military history’s famous commanders. Do you have your own ‘short list’ of historical military commanders that you feel deserve to be singled out for exhibiting exceptional leadership?
10. ACG: The War series and your new ‘must-read’ book certainly represent another blockbuster effort. What’s next? Are you working on or planning another project that you might be able to share with our readers?
