The September issue of Historically Speaking will be posted on Project Muse around the 15th. Before then, I thought readers might like to have a heads up on the content. This issue contains a forum on the neglected field of naval history; interviews with historians on psychology, military, and political topics; reviews essays; and articles on the South in recent history, Australian
hucksters in the 19th century, and more.I will be posting some excerpts from the September issue in the coming weeks. (Links to the full essays will be provided.)
