Most of this year's journal is open-access, and it's full of new research on one of the biggest industrial disputes of the 19th century, the Preston Strike and Lock-Out of 1853-54 -- inspiration for Dickens's Hard Times & Gaskell's North and South.

A comic-strip's-eye-view of Operation Barbarossa - such a good theme (and much more important than it might seem at first glance)
The hard copy of my first chapter in an edited volume just arrived!
I wrote on the comic strip "The Misadventures of Private Neaţă" that ran from 1940 to 1944. I'm pleased that I got to go into more detail on the subject than I could in my book. Really fun/interesting.
