Jack Hamann, Rewriting History in "American Soil"
This companion to a National Public Radio (NPR) program features the text of the first chapter of "On American Soil." Using declassified evidence, Hamann revisits the hanging of an Italian prisoner of war near a U.S. Army base in Washington state and the subsequent court martial of African American soldiers charged with the assault. Includes links to background information, a timeline, and an interview with the author.
