Conversation with Dr. Lindsay Regele About Her New Book

When it comes to Joel Poinsett, who worked closely with former American President Andrew Jackson, is too often underestimated in American History. Besides his crafty political strategies and international reputation, Poinsett was known for his full dedication and devotion to American's revolution. There is no doubt that his efforts made huge differences. In this conversation with Dr. Lindsay Regele, who teaches courses on U.S. history and the history of capitalism at Miami University, she revealed so much more unheard and unknown details from her new book called "Flowers, Guns, and Money-Joel Roberts Poinsett and the Paradoxes of American Patriotism."
