Due to a quirk in the fabric of the universe you can find two pieces I wrote in the newest edition of Middle West Review.
The first: “Finding a Public Audience for Midwestern History.” The second: “Trends in Regional Categorical Scholarship.” A little something for everyone. 🤷♂️

The new issue of @MiddleWestRev is now out! The cover features the Washington Pavilion in Sioux Falls, where last year’s Lost Region Midwestern studies conference was held. It will be held again this November in the same location @UnivNebPress @ProjectMUSE
To celebrate America’s 250th birthday, local artists took to the Brown County Fair for a fast-paced plein air painting competition, capturing everything from midways and ferris wheels to sheep barns and future visions of America.
