Honored to be the featured scholar interviewed in this issue of Federal History, and to appear alongside so many of my fellow SHAFR Historians. Good timing for late April - I talk about what inspired the research and writing of my first book #AfterSaigonsFall
Join us Saturday morning at #RSA24 for a panel on early modern information exchange and knowledge production!

Can’t agree enough! Open Access made it so much easier to teach Jessica’s excellent book. I can’t wait for mine to be equally accessible with the help of VT Libraries and Cornell University Press
Mini-thread! It’s publication day for Tudor Networks of Power, which I co-wrote with Sebastian Ahnert. We are really proud of this book, which brings methods from network science to the study of 130k early modern letters But it’s not just a book! global.oup.com/academic/produ… 1/8

Did you ever have one of those days where you wake up to unexpected, great news? Getting the NEH public scholars fellowship to work on my book _Property Wrongs_ pretty much made my summer. Learning Allyson Nadia Field and Brian Goldstein are in the same cohort made it even better.
Happy #pubday to PLAIN PATHS AND DIVIDING LINES: Navigating Native Land and Water in the Seventeenth-Century Chesapeake by Jessica Lauren Taylor!
