Welcome to my new History Behind the News blog. This is a continuation of my Historian on the Move blog. I’ll
continue Historian on the Move with an emphasis on local Quad Cities issues, but History Behind the News will have a broader focus. I’m still learning how to do this, so I appreciate your patience as I develop History Behind the News. A new feature is the audio widget on the left. I enjoy writing, but I enjoy speaking even more. A couple of days ago, I recorded my thoughts about an economic stimulus package from the past that really worked. I hope you’ll listen.
Because of my teaching schedule, my posts aren’t on a consistent schedule. Please consider subscribing to History Behind the News via email or RSS feed. That’s the easiest way for you to know when something new is posted.
Your comments are important to me, and I usually try to respond. I enjoy knowing what your thoughts are on the issues I write about. Thanks for reading.
