I'm a historian of US military-industrial relations and the business and politics of war mobilizations. I'm a professor of history at UNC Charlotte. My books include The Business of Civil War (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2006); and Destructive Creation: American Business and the Winning of World War II (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2016). I am currently working on a book about the history of the US military-industrial complex from the 1950s to the 2020s.
