I’m so incredibly pleased to celebrate FOREVER FAMILIAS by Jason Palmer and JOSEPH WHITE MUSSER by Cristina M. Rosetti, which won best international book and best biography at the Mormon History Association awards banquet last night.

Thrilled about yesterday's release of our edited volume, Hidden Histories of Unauthorized Migrations from Europe to the US. Contributions from our esteemed authors supply essential insights into today's immigration debates. For more information, see www.press.uillinois.edu/books/?id=p0...
