Seeking panelists and papers for a session on the intersection of the military with civilians(broadly defined), cultures, and/or societies along the North American colonial/revolutionary frontier (c. 1755-1795). We have a chairperson and commentator, along with one panelist (examing military-civilian relations at Fort Pitt during the American Revolution). We are looking to add two additional panelists. Topics involving British, French, American, or relevent colonial military forces preferred. If interested, please email a brief abstract and c.v. to Dr. Daniel Barr (barrd@rmu.edu) no later than October 1, 2006.
Some general information about the Conference:
The Catoctin Center for Regional Studies located at Frederick Community College will host the 74th meeting of the Society for Military History. The conference will take place April 19-22, 2007 in historic Frederick, Maryland which is located forty-five miles west of Washington, D.C.
The theme for the conference will be Crossroads of War. The Program Committee seeks papers and panels that address those intersections during the war-time experience between the military and other sectors of society, including, but not limited to, the home-front, the economy, politics and constitutionalism, as well as culture. This topic includes both the impact of the military on society as well as the influence of societal factors in shaping and defining the military experience during war.
