−
Marc-William Palen's new book ''The "Conspiracy" of Free Trade: The Anglo-American Struggle over Empire and Economic Globalisation, 1846-1896'' is relevant not only to historians of imperialism, capitalism, and economics, but to the 2016 American presidential primary election. Once again, free trade has become a central campaign issue during a presidential election.

==[[How did botched abortions spur the push for medical licensing in 19th Century?]]==

==[[Why was the Construction of the Alaska Highway so important to American History?]]==
+
====Historically Accurate====
−
The creation of the Alaskan Highway was a monumental and difficult task. A 1942 New York Time help wanted ad explained, “This is No Picnic. Working and living conditions on this job are as difficult as those encountered on any construction job ever done in the United States or foreign territory. Men hired for this job will be required to work and live under the most extreme conditions imaginable.

==[[Did multi-cultural societies become widely accepted in ancient history?]]==
+
* [[United States History Study Guide|United States History]]
−
Multicultural societies are today common and ubiquitous, but when did such societies become not only normal or typical but accepted or even celebrated? Most likely, multi-cultural societies begin to evolve early in prehistory, as ethnic groups migrated to regions and integrated into existing societies. However, we rarely see multiculturalism celebrated until much later in historical periods when large states became the norm.
