Also, just picked up the 40-page #historycamp #boston session guide. Eight to ten choices at each time slot, covering all aspects of history. Sorry we could not accommodate everyone. Largest ever, and simply ran out of space. Historycamp.org

We’re not waiting. We created #HistoryCamp to bring together people from all walks of life who love history. And History Camp Boston on March 16 is our largest one ever. We are also expanding to five cities this year. Join us next month in Boston: HistoryCamp.org/Boston

Historians bear some blame for the increasing irrelevance of their discipline. They have retreated from public debate into their own esoteric pursuits. They neglect political, diplomatic, and military history—subjects that students want and need. Me: wapo.st/2SLHv6N

Loved this large poster when I saw it at the Boston city archives. We have recreated it as a print on acid-free paper using archival inks. Available in two sizes. Very limited. Taking advance orders now. store.thehistorylist.com/pro… #historynerd

Closing the day with a history-esque tweet -- just because. I love this image. It's the Tontine Coffee House (on the left) in NYC in 1797. Such a wonderful street-scape!
