Troy Bickham specializes in the history of the
Atlantic world, Britain and its empire, and North America
during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. His first
book, Savages within the Empire (Oxford University
Press, 2005), explores how encounters and relations with
American Indians affected British material, political,
intellectual and religious culture in the eighteenth
century. His forthcoming book,
Britain’s American Revolution: Public Opinion and the
British Press, 1774-1783,
explores British reactions to the American
Revolution, as seen and expressed in the British press. His
articles have appeared in the William and Mary Quarterly,
Journal for Eighteenth Century Studies, Eighteenth
Century Studies, and Past & Present, and his
research has been funded by such institutions as the
American Historical Association, Pew Charitable Trusts,
American Philosophical Society, Royal Historical Society,
and Huntington Library.
He is currently working on two projects. The
first investigates the development of a national British
imperial culture during the eighteenth and early-nineteenth
centuries; the second examines the War of 1812 from an
Atlantic perspective. |
