NEW SERIES LAUNCH DAY...

Ireland & Empire

Ireland was used by England as a laboratory for imperialism, and it was the site of bloody colonial wars for centuries, yet many people in the neighbouring United Kingdom have little understanding of Ireland’s history.

This has been a long time in coming and it's great to see the listing up on @edinburghup.bsky.social for a summer release. Leith and Kevin have put a ton of hard work corralling all of these great essays from our conference in 2022. I'm really thankful to be a small part of the collection!

It’s already a new year, but I thought I’d list my favorite history books from last year. They’re shared in no particular order—I couldn’t fathom ranking them—and I’m sure there’s a lot of great books I haven’t read yet.

But anyway, here are my Top 15 books in American history published in 2015.
