Coming up in 2024
After a whirlwind fall of talks on both the Great New York City Fire of 1776 and the Boston Tea Party of 1773, which celebrated its 250th anniversary on December 16, 2023, my schedule finally seems to be calming down somewhat. But I am still doing a couple of Zoom events in January, as well as some private events in New Jersey, New York, and Florida, in January and February. Please see the Events page for more information!
I did publish an article reflecting on my experiences at the Boston Tea Party reenactment, which you can read about at HNN/Bunk History. I also chatted with Smithsonian Magazine.
Thanks to all the wonderful audiences who invited me to speak about the American Revolution and its legacy during the very busy year of 2023. Happy New Year to everyone!
Oh, and stay tuned! The paperback edition of The Great New York Fire of 1776: A Lost Story of the American Revolution should be available soon, as well as (I think!) the audiobook! The great Vaughn Scribner wrote a really nice review of the book for H-Environment, and Gene Procknow (who previously reviewed the book for the Journal of the American Revolution) called the book one of the best he read in 2023.
Agh, there’s much more! Colonial Williamsburg published a cool piece on the Boston Tea Party, and I appeared on several podcasts, and even a couple of TV shows, over the past months. I’ve tried to stay on top of all that on social media, but not on this blog, for which I apologize! Best wishes to all for 2024.
