2014: New Perspectives on the Italian Campaign and the Pacific War - Lecture

In December of 2014, the New Perspectives lecture focused on the Second World War. Our two speakers were Dr. Terry Copp and Dr. John Ferris, speaking on the Italian campaign and the Pacific War, respectively. Dr. Copp visited from Wilfrid Laurier University, where he is a professor emeritus in the history department as well as the Director for the Laurier Centre for Military and Strategic Disarmament Studies. Dr. Ferris received his PhD from King's College London and had an extremely impressive academic career; he currently teaches in both the history and strategic studies departments here at the University of Calgary. This event was hosted at the Military Museums in Calgary, Alberta.
