Hi folks. It’s been a while since I’ve posted here. I’ve been busy with work on my doctorate and I do believe I can see light at the end of the tunnel. I created a new blog to share some bits and pieces of research relating to my dissertation, which is tentatively titled, “The Ordeal of Homecoming: Northern Relief Organizations and Returning Union Veterans.” I thought I’d send a recent post down this feed in case anyone might be interested. Click below to read…and if you’d like to read more about the things I’m presently writing about, perhaps subscribe at the bottom of the page. Be well!
