The History Syndicate Podcast is to bring together those with a common interest in history. It is to build a community for anyone to discuss everything and anything history.
Whether your research is part of an academic scholarly debate, a museum exhibition, an historical project or personal family history, the syndicate wants to hear and share it with the world.
So much work, time and effort placed into discovering, re-evaluating or add to historical knowledge often goes unsaid, unpublished and unheard. It is the syndicate’s desire to provide a relaxed conversational forum where all have equal opportunity to present their knowledge and hard work.

On this episode, Mark welcomes Salina B Baker to the syndicate to discuss General Nathanael Greene via her historical fiction book, 'The Line of Splendor'. A deep dive into the American Revolution and War of Independence they discuss the seminal moments in General Greene's life, including his motivations, successes and near crippling debt incurred for trying to do the right thing by his soldiers. A problem solver from an early age, Salina tells the story of how people felt during the 18th Century, rather than simply telling the story. Through her research into the historical record, mostly into General Greene's letters, Salina garners the emotions of the time to recreate the conversations and stories of his story during the American Revolution. The pod also veers into discussions on General Arnold and General Greene's involvement with the Major John Andre affair. Sensitive to criticism, he was a private with a limp in the Kentish Guard who was recognised for his potential and promoted to Brigadier General where he spent most of his adult life at war, dying at aged 43. A superb exploration of the 18th century that made for a wonderful conversation and novel, from 'The Line of Splendor' articulates General Greene's own words about being removed from field command to a staff role excellently.
From the macro to the micro topics of history, The History Syndicate Podcast is the forum for all with a common interest in all things history.
