A couple new books I couldn't wait any longer for, plus some intriguing forthcoming titles from the folks at Quirk Books:

- Phillis Wheatley: Biography of a Genius in Bondage by Vincent Carretta (University of Georgia Press, 2011). Amazon. Vin was working on this book as a long-term fellow at MHS when I was there, so I'm super-excited to see it!

- The Things Things Say by Jonathan Lamb (Princeton University Press, 2011). Amazon.

- Taft 2012 by Jason Heller (Quirk Books, 2012). Publisher.

- Ten Tea Parties: Patriotic Protests That History Forgot by Joseph Cummins (Quirk Books, 2012). Publisher.
