Reviews

"A significant contribution to some lively areas of historical scholarship, conceptualizing them in new ways: the history of the body, the history of sexuality, the 'new imperial' history, the history of settler societies, and the intersections of race, gender, and class in all of these." Ann Curthoys, co-editor of Connected Worlds: History in Transnational Perspective
