Many of you know the powerful book about the Haitian Revolution, *The Common Wind*, by the late Julius Scott. His partner Elisha Renne has now written a short biography, *Julius Scott and the Importance of Being*, available here for free download:

I got to hold my hard copy today of Burnard, Hart, and Houllemare’s “Oxford Handbook of the Seven Years’ War”. What an honor to appear alongside these many fantastic authors. And what an amazing trio of editors. Trevor will be missed!
