History of Human Heredity, US to 1860, Citizenship, Morality

Greetings – It seems that H-Net has made it more difficult to sending things more generally. I apologize for cross-posting. I am revising a book manuscript and I have a question (a big one) that I’ve been trying to chase that I haven’t had much luck with, which may mean I’m actually on to something new, but that almost never happens so … I’m looking at the history of human heredity in America from the Revolution to the Civil War.

Re: Call for Papers, Fifteenth Annual Conference in Citizenship Studies: Religion and Citizenship

I am very pleased to announce that the Citizenship Conference now has online abstract submission available at http://www.clas.wayne.edu/Citizenship/Abstract-Submission-Page.

Now a prospective speaker may either send in their abstract by email, or send it via the online form; either one works just fine. One slight advantage of using the online form is that the author receives a confirmation right away that it is received.
