Historian of C18 and C19 Britain, India and empire, esp. East India Company colonialism, sati, slavery and social reform. Views my own etc. She/her.
Excited to finally see of my new book on anti-slavery activist and colonial reformer George Thompson in print. It’s been a long road and saying goodbye to a project is always bittersweet, but I hope others enjoy reading about Thompson’s colourful career as much as I enjoyed researching it.

Just made the jump over from X. I’ll probably mostly lurk here too, but I’m very much enjoying filling my timeline up with interesting people 😊
