reagans-war-on-terrorism-in-nicaraguaDr. Phil Travis announced the publication of his first academic book, which was officially released on November 16, 2016. The book title is “Reagan’s War on Terrorism in Nicaragua: The Outlaw State.” See Dr. Travis’  website at http://philiptravis.com for anyone interested in what this project is about (there is also a discount code should anyone wish to purchase the book).

Dr. Travis says: “This monograph was based on my PhD dissertation. I am, therefore, indebted to the guidance provided by some of the great scholars at WSU. Specifically, I wish to extend my gratitude to Dr. Noriko Kawamura, Dr. Matthew A. Sutton, and Thomas Preston (Political Science). The exceptional guidance provided by these mentors made this project, and future works, possible. I am grateful to have had such a positive experience at WSU. The training  received was second to none, and it provided me with the tools to succeed in the classroom and to begin the construction of my next book project.”

I am currently an Assistant Professor of History in the Department of Social and Behavioral Sciences at the State College of Florida, Manatee-Sarasota.
