Thanks to all of you who came for the panel on my book at ASEEES. It was great engaging with the panelists’ ideas and all your thoughtful questions! A reminder that the book—along with other great books from Cornell—is 40% off through the weekend with code 09EXP40 (on Cornell’s website).
ICYMI: This afternoon’s panel on @nicoleeaton.bsky.social’s "German Blood, Slavic Soil" was thoughtful and engaging (as is her book). It's also the recipient of the @aseees.bsky.social Reginald Zelnik Book Prize in History! Intrigued? Come see it IRL at @cornellupress.bsky.social's #ASEEES24 booth.
