Hanging out with Otis, our 100-pound Bernese Mountain Canine. Initially from Atlantic Metropolis, New Jersey, I presently reside in beautiful and generally very cold Boston, Massachusetts. I am an experienced and award-profitable educator, creator, and historian with expertise in highschool and school classroom instruction, Memory Wave historic site tours, collaborations with museums, and history instructor coaching. My analysis is focused primarily on the Civil Conflict period and the way People have fought over and commemorated this period in American historical past. My first e-book, Remembering the Battle of the Crater: Warfare as Murder (2012) explored the historical past and controversy over the massacre of United States Colored Troops at the Battle of the Crater in 1864. One of the extra pervasive myths concerning the Civil Battle is the claim that 1000's of Black men fought as soldiers within the Confederate military throughout the war.

For extra on the specifics of my research and publications, see my CV. I'm at present ending up the first biography of Col. Robert Gould Shaw to be printed within the last twenty-five years. A Glorious Fate: The Life and Legacy of Robert Gould Shaw will probably be revealed in early 2026 by the University of North Carolina Press. In addition, I'm enhancing the collected letters of Captain John Christopher Winsmith, who served in the Confederate military, but later embraced the Republican Get together in Reconstruction South Carolina as well as a brief book on the experiences of enslaved laborers within the Confederate army during the Gettysburg Marketing campaign. Lastly, I plan on co-writing a history of Boston in the course of the Civil Warfare with Kanisorn Wongsrichanalai.



I commonly lead teams on tours that explore Boston’s historic Black neighborhood and the city’s many Civil Conflict monuments. In addition to working as a tour information here in Boston, I've also guided teachers, college students, and the general public on quite a few Civil Warfare battlefields and Civil Rights tours by means of Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi.
