It’s finally done. Absolutely thrilled to have submitted THE SHAH'S GREAT TOUR – my global microhistory of the epic royal journeys of Persia's monarchs to Imperial Europe – for production. May it reshape our understanding of monarchy and the world order in the imperial age.
Thank you:)

Upcoming course is “The Global War” and I’m thrilled to be learning more about the ‘fringes’ of WWII. (Aka, what isn’t taught in US schools)
Neuerscheinung: "Das gelebte Europa!" Ich freue mich übermäßig, dass dieses von Florian Greiner und mir herausgegebene Themenheft heute erschienen ist - mit fünf großartigen Beiträgen, von Abolitionskampagnen über Wein und Versicherungen bis hin zu faschistischen Netzwerken und Siedlerkolonien...
