  How We Think is a seminal work by the American philosopher and educator John Dewey, first published in 1910. The book explores the process of human thought and inquiry, examining how we develop ideas and knowledge, and how we use critical thinking and problem-solving to make sense of the world around us. 
  Dewey's approach emphasizes the importance of experience and reflection in the process of learning and thought. He argues that our thinking is influenced by our past experiences and that we must reflect on those experiences in order to form new ideas and perspectives. He also advocates for a scientific approach to inquiry, emphasizing the importance of observation, experimentation, and testing in the development of knowledge. 
  In How We Think, Dewey also introduces his ideas on experimentalism and pragmatism, arguing that knowledge must be grounded in experience and that theories and ideas must be tested through practical application. He discusses the role of logic and critical thinking in this process, and the importance of education in fostering these skills. 
  How We Think is a groundbreaking work in the fields of philosophy, education, and psychology, and remains relevant today for its insights into the nature of human thought and learning

  In this major new history of the Continental Army's Grand Forage of 1778, award-winning military historian Ricardo A. Herrera uncovers what daily life was like for soldiers during the darkest and coldest days of the American Revolution: the Valley Forge winter. Here, the army launched its largest and riskiest operation—not a bloody battle against British forces but a campaign to feed itself and prevent starvation or dispersal during the long encampment. Herrera brings to light the army's herculean efforts to feed itself, support local and Continental governments, and challenge the British Army. 
   
   
   
  Highlighting the missteps and triumphs of both General George Washington and his officers as well as ordinary soldiers, sailors, and militiamen, Feeding Washington's Army moves far beyond oft-told, heroic, and mythical tales of Valley Forge and digs deeply into its daily reality, revealing how close the Continental Army came to succumbing to starvation and how strong and resourceful its soldiers and leaders actually were.
