Recently I wrote a blog for my history department at King’s College London describing five texts that have inspired my interest in Atlantic and pirate history and also how these books have shaped my research. I also have to give a shout-out to the history department at California State University Northridge, which sparked my interest in early modern Atlantic history in 2008.

I’m going to get back to blogging on here soon and I even have a few in the pipeline! The radio-silence has been because I’ve had my head down as I’ve slogged through the writing-up process of my PhD. It’s not done yet, but I’ve glanced up to grab some air and hopefully can get back to some proper communication soon.

In the meantime, here’s a link to my blog article about my five must-reads for research about early modern Atlantic history and piracy. Hope you like it!
