The History Blog is the shared effort of faculty members of the History Department at Western Connecticut State University in Danbury. We are Burton Peretti, Michael Nolan, Katherine Allocco, Abubaker Saad, Wynn Gadkar-Wilcox, Leslie Lindenauer, Kevin Gutzman, Joshua M. Rosenthal, Jennifer Nugent Duffy, and Marcy May. We range in ages, backgrounds, families, religions, and interests, but we share a commitment to exploring the past as it connects to the present. For specifics about any one of us, you can check us out at the WCSU History Department webpage at http://www.wcsu.edu. Our blog examines history in our community, politics, and education; we welcome comment and discussion.
