“Lessons from History: A Precis of US Intervention and the New World Order”

A Historical Precis is a fancy, structured summary of an article or book (in your case an article). You will choose an article from the list provided below, and write a Historical Precis on that article. You must read/analyze the article and look for the thesis, the type of evidence, and the support for the thesis in 2 pages, no more or less. attached is a detailed guide of my expectations on how to do the precis.
