I specialize in early modern military history, with a particular
focus on colonial America, Native Americans, and the British
empire. I have just finished Barbarians
and Brothers (listed above) which is contracted with Oxford
University Press. I have two edited volumes in production, one on
the relationship between war and culture in world history, and the
other on military alliances and and relations between early modern
empires and indigenous peoples. I am also working on issues of
war and
sovereignty in the English/British
relationship with local peoples in Ireland and North
America.
I am currently the series editor for the "Warfare and Culture" series to be
published by New York University Press. Interested authors
should click here for
more info.
Along the way I have become involved in archaeology in
Greece, Albania, Virginia, and Hungary, and I continue
to work and publish in that field. Some relevant links are provided
below. At the moment I am a co-director for a project in the
mountains of northern Albania (the Shala Valley Project, SVP).
The historical component of that project examines how the tribal
peoples of those mountains maintained their autonomy from the Ottoman
empire while also providing some military service to the empire.
I was an officer in the U.S. Army (combat engineer) and served in
Germany, Virginia and in the Gulf War. When not working
or teaching I am a blacksmith and a whitewater kayaker.
