Book Donations for the Great Lakes Center for the Study of the United States -- from University of South Florida to Makerere University

While packing my supplies for my work at the Great Lakes Center for the Study of the United States, I inquired whether I could bring some book donations for the Center. And, if so, what kinds of books would be most helpful to the Center's research and teaching interests.  The response was that books related to 

--US Foreign Policy Africa
--IR
--US Politics
--American Culture
--Terrorism--US History

would be especially appreciated.  

I had a good selection of American Politics books that could be shared, but I reached out to colleagues at the University of South Florida to address the other topics.  

Many thanks to my colleague Dr. Larissa Kopytoff (an expert in African History who contributed copies of Elizabeth Schmidt's Foreign Intervention in Africa: From the Cold War to the War on Terror) and my colleague in Political Science, Dr. Arturo Jimenez-Bacardi, who generously donated books related to IR, terrorism, and American Foreign Policy.   

Thank you Drs. Kopytoff and Jimenez-Bacardi for supporting the faculty and students at Makerere University!

with Center Director Dr Edward Kaweesi
