I just had a full length feature article published in the October issue of Chesapeake Life. Called “Badges of Honor: Tales of Eastern Shore Lawmen,” the piece features five law enforcement officials from the Shore. They are Sheriff Louis Andrews, 80, Caroline County; Chief Thomas N. McIntire, 83, Elkton; Officer Marshall L. Purner, 81, North East; Sheriff Robert Jones, 61, Somerset County; and Warden LaMonte Cooke, 57, Queen Anne’s County. I had lots of fun interviewing these fascinating men and hearing their tales of serving the citizens for decades.

Blogging on Delmarva History
These days web 2.0 products make it so easy to publish just about anything and I make extensive use of some of them in my classroom. I’m also starting to use them to publish local historycontent, which I think will be of interest to a wider audience. In the blogosphere, I’ve set up two beyond that those that are dedicated to my classes.
I try to post to them regularly as I find informative information. You may find them of interest so I’m adding the links here in case you want to check them out.
