From H-Urban:
Pennsylvania History, A Journal of Mid-Atlantic Studies has issued a special volume focusing on the environmental histories of the Mid-Atlantic region. Co-editors Allen Dieterich-Ward and Dave Hsiung worked with contributors to craft a volume that would appeal to historians of the region as well as those focused on the broader themes of environmental history and related fields. The issue includes an interview with Joel A. Tarr who studies the environmental history of cities and the history and impact of their technological systems, as well as contributions by scholars such as April M. Beisaw, Peter Linehan, James Longhurst and Charles Hardy III. The full list of contributors and their articles is available under the cut.
