  • August 9, 1775: An Appeal for Supplies

    Cover art for August 9, 1775: AI-generated image of a Colonial-era woman in the Rosie the Riveter pose. It's the third arm that makes it art.

    This. This artwork right here is why I’m reluctant to use A.I. to generate cover art. But this one came out too hilarious for me not to use, am I right?

    George Washington worried about supplies for his troops pretty much throughout the Revolutionary War. Sometimes it was ammunition, as we discussed a couple of days ago, other times it was basic things like clothing and blankets.

    Fortunately, there were people who heard his concerns and took action on behalf of the soldiers who were working to break us away from England.
