Charles A. (Charles Augustin) Coulomb

Charles A. Coulomb (1872–1935) is best remembered for The Administration of the English Borders During the Reign of Elizabeth, published in 1911. The book was presented as a doctoral thesis to the Graduate School of the University of Pennsylvania and focuses on government, conflict, and border policy in Elizabethan England.

He also appears as one of the authors of A School History of the Great War, an early 20th-century textbook written with Albert E. McKinley and Armand J. Gerson for student readers. Taken together, the surviving records suggest a scholar interested in making political and military history understandable both for academic audiences and for younger learners.

Public biographical information about his life seems limited. Genealogical records indexed online identify him as born in 1872 and died in 1935, but beyond those basic dates, easily confirmed details are scarce.
