Major update:

For your perusal on this Wednesday evening, I offer a big update to the Kansas City section, adding Shawnee-Mission, Overland Park, and Raytown, and also updating most of the area from the early 1990s to the present. I wasn’t sre I would be able to do this one, so I’m excited, and it’s definitely an interesting period in the history of the region.

Other new stuff since the last front-page update:

You might also want to check out the queue to see what’s coming up!

New book that you want:

Beyond Piggly Wiggly

…and not just because I’m several footnotes and an acknowledgement in it. This one is really good and was written by a colleague of mine at UNCG. There will be a better review coming soon, but you can pre-order now. It drops on 1 August.

True North strong and free:

I’m off this weekend for some quality time in Canada. After a weeklong conference in Toronto, I’ll be going other places yet to be determined. This will be my first trip to Toronto post-pandemic (it’s usually an annual destination for me but I was thwarted by an early winter storm last year) and I am much excited, particularly following my big recent Toronto update. If you see me in Loblaws, say hello.
