We're deep in marking season so this feels like a remnant of another life, but my article, 'Sexual Violence and Military Justice in the Occupied South' is now available in the June issue of Civil War History: muse.jhu.edu/pub/14/artic...

14 May 1607: English colonists arrive at Jamestown. In my book The Virginia Venture @pennpress.bsky.social I explored the social history of this colonial project, from an English/transatlantic perspective involving women, the poor, children, institutions #onthisday #Jamestown #Virginia #history

Interesting thread on public history, Reddit, and gaming…Didn’t think I’d be putting together those three in a sentence today

If you’re a UK-based US historian you should definitely consider putting in for this, especially if you’re PhD/ECR. BrANCH is such a welcoming conference for those starting out in academia, and this year it’s teaming up with BGEAH! What could be better???

EXCEPTIONALISM IN CRISIS, by @alysbeverton.bsky.social. For many Americans in the 19thc, Mexico was regarded as the unstable, uncivilized, revolution-prone nation to the South - an example of what the US would never be. The Civil War made them revisit these assumptions. uncpress.org/book/9781469...
