John Fea   |  February 1, 2010 Leave a Comment

The other day I received my program for the 2010 Annual Meeting of the Organization of American Historians. This year’s meeting is April 7-10 in Washington D.C.

I will not be able to make it to this year’s meeting due to a history department program review, but if I were attending I might check out the following sessions:

April 7th at 1:45pm: Toss-up between: “Reinterpreting the Bible in Early American Culture” (Chris Beneke, Jonathan Den Hartog, Michael Lee, and Alexis Antrocoli) and “The Varieties of Nostalgic Experience” (Stephanie Yuhl, Susan Matt, and Benjamin Wise).
