FYI

>DC fanatics will enjoy the upcoming DC Historical Studies Conference, Nov. 12-15 at the Carnegie Library in DC. Some of your colleagues are presenting in the conference. Also, historian Eric Foner will be speaking.

I blogged about some panels:

but I am a sociologist and thus have some biases, so you can see the program, etc, here:
