Troy Bickham specializes
in the history of
Britain and its empire, particularly the Atlantic world,
during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. His first
book, Savages within the Empire (2005) explores how
encounters and relations with American Indians affected
British material, political, intellectual and religious
culture in the eighteenth century. His recent book,
Making Headlines: The American Revolution as Seen Through
the British Press (2008), explores British reactions to
the American Revolution, as seen and expressed in the
British press. He is currently working on a transatlantic
study of the War of 1812. 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,
