I’ve worked as a historian for approximately 25 years. My scholarly background is in nineteenth-century British and Australian political history, particularly Chartism and its influence in Australia; however, a significant part of my postdoctoral career has been in the heritage sector (primarily consultancy work for the New South Wales National Parks and Wildlife Service). I’ve also helped teach a range of History and related units at the University of New England. My Google Scholar profile lists scholarly publications and commissioned projects.
This site is a collection of some of my more recent work in the emerging discipline of Digital History. Most essays contain interactive content (particularly maps) as well as images, audio/video and other online material. Wherever possible, references are linked to digitised sources. Essay summaries can be found under the subject menu headings above and you can use the form below to contact me.
