Congratulations to @CNZander on this well-deserved award. Perhaps the best way I can rep this book: it *immediately* changed how I teach an era of U.S. History. In this case, Reconstruction as a clash of civil rights, party politics, West/South & the Army. Buy it and read it!

@CateHodorowicz We made some cookies from Sabor Judío yesterday, by the way, and they lasted no longer than an hour before being devoured.

It’s a new year, so it seems as good a time as any to share some exciting news. I’m thrilled to say I’ll be joining the History Department at the University of Wyoming in the fall, coming home to the Mountain West after a decade away. Moe is ready to be a cowdog.

ATTN EVERYONE: Andrew C. Isenberg’s The Age of the Borderlands (April 2025) rewrites the story of Manifest Destiny. It reveals how Indigenous societies, enslaved people, and rival empires fiercely resisted US expansion, challenging the idea of “the land of the free.” Game changer
