I am currently under contract to write the volume on the 1844 presidential election for the Univ. Press of Kansas’ American Presidential Elections series.
Along with PMVB co-editor James Bradley, I am also under contract to produce a four-volume Selected Papers of Martin Van Buren for the Univ. of Tennessee Press.
My current long-term research projects, still in the preliminary stages, examine the development of the Jackson-Donelson family during the Civil War era and the evolution of Andrew Jackson as a democratic (and Democratic) symbol.
