Excited to see my book, 'I Felt All This': Enslaved People's Emotional Lives in the Antebellum US South, is up on CUP's website - coming out in July 2026! www.cambridge.org/core/books/i...

I was lucky enough to work in the Department of American Studies at Nottingham for a year, and as Emily says, it is a dynamic and welcoming community providing students with a really important alternative to a history degree. Please sign this!
