Below are projects either in progress or in development.
A class in development: The Industrial Revolution in America 1790-1860
This class introduces the Industrial Revolution period and the three technologies driving its progress; power systems, transportation, and communications. The class provides an overview of the sociopolitical and cultural changes that allowed the Industrial Revolution to begin and grow ending with the Industrial Revolution’s effects on slavery and culture leading into the Civil War. The Course Outline and Syllabus will be posted to the Portfolio page as soon as the class has concluded, the video lecture for this class is already posted there. (This is a “HIST 820 Teaching History” class project)
Modoc War Research: Several projects in development stem from the Modoc War including a review of the literature and looking at areas of the subject that have either not been covered, or under covered in the published literature. There are unpublished works that can contribute to an improved context that should be addressed. Some of these works are good candidates for documentary editions and or inclusion in the revisitation of larger topics.
