I believe the answer is: Theodore Judah

Because of people's unfamiliarty with the technology that Judah proposed, he got the 'Crazy Judah' as nickname. He was the central figure of the initial development of the first transcontinental railroad and the first person who came up and collection enough investment to started the project.

Why was Okinawa the last step in the Allies’ island-hopping campaign?
Bond [772]
Okinawa was one of the most heavily fortified and strategically located islands in the the island-hopping campaign. The Americans planned to use Okinawa as a launching base for air attacks and eventually an invasion into the larger islands of Japan. For these reasons, it made sense to make it the final island in the island-hopping campaign, after which the campaign would shift into an invasion into the heart of Japan. 
This larger-scale invasion never occurred, however, as Truman elected to end the war by dropping two atomic bombs on Japan, rather than lose many more men and resources in a long and bloody invasion.

What critiques of the “Gospel” are apparent in Mark Twain’s satirization of the Battle Hymn of the Republic?
Lelu [443]

The critiques of the “Gospel” are apparent in Mark Twain’s satirization of the Battle Hymn of the Republic because the hymn (a holy, church song) claimed that God was on the North's side.

<h3>What is the Battle Hymn of the Republic??</h3>

In this gospel poem, the major themes includes Patriotism, war, and God's grace. The poem presents the selfless fight of the soldiers for the noble cause and belief in God's will.

In this poem, the author talks about the sacrifices of the soldiers who do not hesitate to die for their country.

The poem is controversal because one verse of the hymn includes “let us die to make men free” in order to fight to end slavery,these words also angered southerners.

In conclusion, the critiques of the “Gospel” are apparent in Mark Twain’s satirization of the Battle Hymn of the Republic because the hymn (a holy, church song) claimed that God was on the North's side.
