In the seventh annual Ginsburg-Satell Lecture on American Character and Identity, FPRI's Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Walter A. McDougall continues his exciting narrative of Anglo-American relations from 1776 through the 19th century during which time a principal aim of British diplomacy was to contain the growth of the United States lest it become a peer competitor for world power. This episode focuses on the little-known British dalliance with the Texas Republic in the years leading up to the US-Mexican War in 1846.
The Annual Ginsburg-Satell Lecture on American Character and Identity is made possible thanks to the generous support of the Ginsburg Family Foundation and the Satell Family Foundation.
