I have a book cover! After years of work, "Survival at Treblinka: Geography, Gender, and Social Networks in Jewish Resistance" is available for pre-order. It will ship in March and the official release date is set for April 2026. I can't wait to share this important history and hear from readers!

My book is up on the publisher’s website and available for preorder! Things are getting real now.

Check out the work of my amazing student Leah Davenport and the Landsmann family story!

There’s no future in which we have those votes.

True that.

You’d have to tell me what the mood is among your UK students, but a really significant proportion of my students are preoccupied with the possibility of a draft. If they’re even mildly online it seems to be a real concern for them.
