From Professor Sean Field, chair of the Faculty Research Committee of the History Department:
Historians are generally measured by the books they publish. In this regard the UVM Department of History is measuring up very well indeed. In addition to a steady stream of articles and chapters, department members have published at least nine major new monographs since 2014, plus numerous edited volumes, translations, and new editions. All together, the UVM Department of History has over 20 books to its credit in the last two years.
To celebrate this success, the UVM Department of History will host a “Book Celebration” at 4:00 PM on Friday January 29 in the Billings Library Apse. There will be free food and brief remarks from UVM President Thomas Sullivan and a few of our authors. History majors and minors, graduate students, and the entire university community are invited, as is the general public.
