Courses

I am on sabbatical leave this year (2013-14) but will teach some weeks in the graduate course, History 6020.

Click on the links below to see my reading lists and discussion questions.

History 6020: Select Topics in U.S. History
This is the York graduate course that prepares students for their Ph.D. qualifying exams. It's a team taught course organized by two documents: the syllabus and the field list. Students can also see discussion questions for the weeks that I'm leading.

Footnotes, Bibliography and Thesis Statements
Most historians will accept any one of several approved styles for your footnotes and bibliography. My preference, however, is for the Chicago or "Turabian" Style, which is used widely in the Humanities. You can find it by clicking on these links. And here's my guide to formulating thesis and main division statements.
