Hi,
Several of us recently organized a session at the Williamsburg SHA
focused loosely around mid-nineteenth century settlement/agrarian
frontiers in the American Midwest, with comparative data from other
areas, including Canada and Australia.
We would very much like to contact anybody doing similar research in
other international areas, particularly English-speaking colonial
regions in the nineteenth century. South Africa, Australia, and New
Zealand come immediately to mind, but other areas would also be of
interest. Other language areas with Western European settlers might
also be of interest ...
We would also be interested in talking to other folks in the US or
Canada involved in similar research that we were not able to contact
before the 2007 SHA meetings.
If you know anybody doing research, etc., please contact either
myself or Alasdair Brooks ([log in to unmask]). Thanks in
advance

"There is also an artificial aristocracy founded on wealth and birth,
without either virtue or talents ... The artificial aristocracy is a
mischievous ingredient in government, and provisions should be made to
prevent its ascendancy."
