Call for Contributors: Personal Stories/Public Land

We are seeking contributors for a book collection of essays on oral history and public land. 

We invite scholars and practitioners working in the fields of history, oral history, and/or environmental history to explore topical approaches to environmental history while keeping the methodology of oral history front and center. The tentative title for the essay collection is “Personal Stories/Public Land.” Themes may include activism about the environment, the idea of the commons through the lens of personal story, and the relationship between historical memory and natural environments. 

An abstract of 500 words and a CV to Kathy Newfont, Associate Professor, Mars Hill College and Debbie Lee, Professor, Washington State University by April 1, 2011
