2007: A Good Year for the History Department

Since you asked, in 2007:

-- Joanne Klein's article "Traffic, Telephones and Police Boxes: The Deterioration of Beat Policing in Birmingham, Liverpool, and Manchester between the World Wars" appeared in Policing Interwar Europe: Continuity, Change, and Crisis, 1918-1940, edited by Gerald Blaney for Palgrave-MacMillan.
