.@GALLIFRAEAN's paper is great & all, but I am *really* looking forward to the finished dissertation (& eventual book). She defends this fall!

Next speaker in #NASOH2021 "#Gender at Sea" panel is @GALLIFRAEAN, presenting “Unsuitable and Incompatible: Ensign Vernon ‘Copy’ Berg, Bisexuality & the Cold War U.S. Navy.”
#maritime #navalhistory #OceanHist #HistOcean
Next up in "#Gender at Sea" at #NASOH2021 is Michael Toth of @TCU with “Whalers and Whale Ships: A Culture of Violence.” Toth argues that the violence inherent in #whaling inured sailors to interpersonal violence onboard, incl. mutiny & desertion.

First up in "#Gender at Sea" panel @ #NASOH2021 is John O. Jensen of @UWF with "Opportunities Afloat: Sailing Women on the Great Lakes and the History of Domestic labor in the United States, 1870-1910."
#maritime #OceanHist #HistOcean
Back from lunch at #NASOH2021, & I'm lined up for "#Gender at Sea," with John O. Jensen of @UWF, Michael Toth of @TCU, @GALLIFRAEAN of @AuburnU, & Megan Crutcher of @TAMU
#maritime #OceanHist #HistOcean #NavalHistory
Also props to Catherine Brooks of @TAMU who prerecorded her talk but is now doing it live on short notice. Great paper on “Breadfruit and Botanical Gardens in West Indies as a Tool of British #Environmental Imperialism in the 18th Century”! #NASOH2021 #maritime #envhist
Slight hiccup in starting remote presentation during this panel provides chance to note how very well #NASOH2021 hybrid experience has gone overall. Half remote/half onsite conference is plenty challenging, & I'm impressed by how well @NASOH_History & host @uwf have handled it!
(When I say soon-to-be Dr, I mean Roger Bailey defends his dissertation on *Tuesday*(!) He looks remarkably calm, under the circumstances. 😉 )
#NASOH2021
Currently @ #NASOH2021 attending the panel "Slave Trade and International Connections," with papers from John Beeler from @UofAlabama, soon-to-be Dr Roger Bailey of U Maryland, and Catherine Brooks of @TAMU.

Neglected to tweet earlier about the roundtable on Publishing in Maritime and Naval History @ #NASOH2021, with people like @LincolnPaine & @monitorkitty sharing their wisdom and experience--always useful to hear from people further along the path!
I need someone in the other room at #NASOH2021 to start tweeting. I wanna hear about 19th Century #Naval History, but decisions had to be made.😕 The FOMOONH* is real!
*(Fear of missing out on naval history)
Next on my plate for #NASOH2021 is a roundtable, where @oceanhistories, @farsouthhistory, & @LincolnPaine will answer the question "What Can Maritime History Do For You?"
