Historian. Prof @ Laurier. Researching masculinity, mental illness and Victorian soldiers at the moment. Once had things to say about London Clubland.
I’m working on an article trying to explain why the Victorian army had no concept of psychological battle trauma. But more importantly… my dog and her best friend had their first “pup cup”

Another incredibly engaging plenary “Savin, Sex, and Scandal: Rethinking Abortion in Early Modern
England” with Mary Fissell. Sadly topical piece. A shame judges don’t actually listen to historical experts on the history. #nacbs2024

James Vernon giving a generous, sprawling talk on oil, colonialism, capitalism, global politics, and racial exploitation. Some surprising and engaging turns. Including… Kung Fu stewardesses!?! #nacbs2024

I’m in meetings all afternoon, but can confirm Denver is a fun city for historians.

Just starting the transition over here from the shattered remnants that was twitter. Hopefully some diverting history posts soon. For now…Holly the dog. Just turned one.
