Commentary: Honor And Martialism In The U.S. South And Prussian East Elbia During The Mid-Nineteenth Century, Edward L. Ayers

I would like to build on the wealth of detail he has provided to help clarify the larger comparison between the South and Prussia.

Instead, most accept the notion of a process of dialogue between independent professions and bureaucratic authority.
