New Common-place Released

The July issue of Common-place (the best history e-journal out there) is now available. It includes features on the house Ben Franklin rented with he stayed in London, and on the loyalist daughters of Boston's Rev. Mather Byles, a conversation with historian Peter Mancall (whose book Hakluyt's Promise I enjoyed very much), and much more.

There's also a nice review of the Massachusetts Historical Society website; it's always nice to see the place you work get praise!
