Book Lecture: A Rage to Conquer
2025-06-10 17:00 - 18:00 (America/New_York) | The Institute of World Politics, 1521 16th Street Northwest, Washington, DC, 20036, United States
Michael Walsh will discuss his book A Rage to Conquer, a journey through the twelve of the most important battles in Western history.

About the Lecture:
A sequel to Michael Walsh’s Last Stands, his new book A Rage to Conquer is a journey through the twelve of the most important battles in Western history. As Walsh sees it, war is an important facet of every culture – and, for better or worse, our world is unthinkable without it. War has been an essential part of the human condition throughout history, the principal agent of societal change, waged by men on behalf of, and in pursuit of, their gods, women, riches, power, and the sheer joy of combat.
In A Rage to Conquer, Walsh brings history to life as he considers a group of courageous commanders and the battles they waged that became crucial to the course of Western history. He looks first at Carl Von Clausewitz, the seminal thinker in the Western canon dealing with war. He then moves on to Achilles at Ilium, Alexander at Gaugamela, Caesar at Alesia, Constantine at the Milvian Bridge, Aetius at the Catalaunian Plains, Bohemond at Dorylaeum and Antioch, Napoleon at Austerlitz, Pershing at St.-Mihiel, Nimitz at Midway and Patton at the Bulge with a final consideration of how the Battle of 9/11 was ultimately lost by the U.S. and what that portends for the future.

About the Speaker:
The author of more than fifteen novels and non-fiction books, Michael Walsh was the classical music critic for Time Magazine and received the 2004 American Book Awards prize for fiction for his gangster novel, And All the Saints in 2004. His popular columns for National Review written under the pseudonym David Kahane were developed into the book, Rules for Radical Conservatives. His books The Devil’s Pleasure Palace and The Fiery Angel, examine the enemies, heroes, triumphs and struggles of Western Civilization from the ancient past to the present time. He divides his time between Connecticut and Ireland.

2025-06-06 09:00 - 16:30 (America/Chicago) | MA
Learn how to prevent firearm injuries through purposeful actions and effective policies at our Livestream event.

As firearm injuries continue to claim lives, especially among our children and teenagers, it’s crucial to convene experts, legislators, and advocacy groups to explore effective strategies for reducing these tragic incidents. Join us for the fourth annual Firearm Injury Prevention conference, an essential gathering addressing the pressing public health crisis of firearm injuries in the United States.
This nonpartisan event, held in conjunction with National Gun Violence Awareness Day, aims to foster meaningful dialogue and collaboration. Through expert panels, research presentations, and policy discussions, attendees will gain insights into the latest data-driven approaches to firearm injury prevention. The conference will highlight evidence-based policies, community-led interventions, and advancements in public health strategies designed to reduce firearm-related harm. Additionally, we encourage attendees to wear orange in commemoration of this important day.
Sponsored by the Firearm Injury Prevention and Safety Program at Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy, our goal is to generate actionable recommendations and initiatives to curb this epidemic. Join us as we work towards a safer, healthier future for all.
