Re: James Mattis as a Tacitean hero

Thanks!  Zaretsky teaches history at U of Houston, I see.  Mattis seems to
be one of the few Trump associates who've not been indelibly stained by the
association.

The essay is a bit hard to reach without a sub.  I'm attaching a pdf and
will gladly send a copy to anyone who asks.

Best,

Dan
