I joined the historical profession because I believed that historians remained committed to writing for a broader public audience. My books are thus written both to meet scholarly standards and public tastes. I personally guarantee that my books are almost entirely jargon free and can be understood (and perhaps appreciated) by a wide range of readers. You have my word on it!

During the next few years a number of my books will be in print. Most of these books are or will be available through Amazon.com or Barnesandnoble.com. I have also included a couple of the local editorials, integrating urban analysis, I have written for the Times Picayune newspaper in New Orleans.
