This iconoclastic, myth-busting historian has illuminated climactic and crescendo moments from the American Revolution to the Second World War while establishing new literary benchmarks in women’s, African-American, Caribbean (Jamaica, Haiti, and Cuba), American Revolutionary War, Tuskegee, Civil War, Buffalo Soldiers, Irish, Little Bighorn, Pirate, Aviation, Western, Spanish-American War, Battle of Gettysburg, and Southern history.
Dr. Tucker’s work has bestowed greater recognition to long-ignored African-American men and women to emerge as one of the most groundbreaking historians. Dr. Tucker has illuminated forgotten aspects of Caribbean history and contributed to Haitian Relief Organization.
