From homelessness to hotel living during the Covid-19 pandemic
We explored life in a hotel where unhoused individuals were accommodated during the COVID-19 pandemic. We conducted hour-long semi-structured interviews with twenty residents of a lodging hotel in New York City to: (1) compare their current living situation with prior experiences of homelessness; (2) address how current needs were being met; and (3) assess how hotel living might facilitate residents’ transitions to more permanent housing. Althoug…
Services needed and received when moving on from permanent supportive housing
Moving On initiatives present opportunities for stable individuals to move from permanent supportive housing (PSH) into mainstream affordable housing. However, there is a dearth of research on how best to support individuals during this critical transition. This mixed-methods study examines transitional and aftercare services needed and received by individuals moving on through an MOI. Descriptive statistics quantified frequency of services neede…
Searching the Shadows: Thoughts on the West's Political History An Extended Field Note
If you’ll forgive a mild jeremiad and some family history, I’d like to revisit the old West. No, not the “Old West” with capital “O,” with gunfights and “Indian scrapes,” but a different old West disappearing in the shadows of cultural drift. The old West I’d like to revisit is the dimming past of Populism and progressivism. That particular old West has not escaped historians’ notice. Interest, however, has waned as attention to colonialism has w…
Rodeo: An Animal History
Susan Nance has produced one of the best analyses of rodeo since Elizabeth Atwood Lawrence's Rodeo: An Anthropologist Looks at the Wild and the Tame (1984). In 218 pages, Nance's Rodeo examines early twentieth-century steer-busting controversies; the evolution of bucking horses; late twentieth-century bull riding; debates about calf roping; and even “mutton busting,” wherein children ride sheep. Nance has no intention to write a comprehensive his…
The Ghosts of Guerrilla Memory: How Civil War Bushwhackers Became Gunslingers in the American West
Matthew Christopher Hulbert's The Ghosts of Guerrilla Memory examines the shadows, mirrors, and obfuscations that yielded what we call a “legacy” for the guerrilla theater in Civil War Missouri. The fulcrum for Hulbert's analysis is a key observation: those who commemorated the Civil War often marginalized or excluded Missouri's guerrillas by deeming them peculiarly brutal. “Such is the commemorative sleight of hand that renders a raid resulting …
Homelessness in New York City: Policymaking from Koch to de Blasio
German mathematician Horst Rittel first described wicked problems as “a class of social system problems which are ill-formulated, where the information is confusing, where there are many clients and decision makers with conflicting values, and where the ramifications in the whole system are thoroughly confusing” (quoted in Richard Buchanan, “Wicked Problems in Design Thinking,” Design Issues 8 (Spring 1992): 5–21, at p. 15). Among their defining …
The Great Gatsby ’s Nick Carraway: His Narration and His Sexuality
When I teach The Great Gatsby, I wait until we’ve read through chapter four to discuss Nick Carraway’s ambivalent (or at least ambiguous) sexuality. I’ve done this maybe two dozen times now—first i

Producing Predators: Wolves, Work, and Conquest in the Northern Rockies
In Producing Predators Michael D. Wise views “whoop-up country”—the borderlands between the U.S. state of Montana and the Canadian province of Alberta—through the prism of colonial theory. Both Blackfeet and wolves, argues Wise, fell victim to a discourse that contrasted predation with productivity. Settlers viewed Indians and wolves as creatures dedicated to cunning, stealth, and cruelty. Settlers, by contrast, identified their own livestock ind…
When the Wolf Came: The Civil War and the Indian Territory
A Look at the Civil War in Indian Territory When I teach the Civil War, I talk very little about its impact on American Indians. I note that the tribes had divided loyalties; that the Cherokees reluctantly sided with the Confederacy, then with the Union, but were forced to cede much of th
Hunting and American Identity: The Rise, Fall, Rise and Fall of an American Pastime
This article examines how hunting came to define the American identity in the nineteenth century and how that identity became increasingly restricted to rural, white males in the twentieth century. The tie between hunting and identity began at colonisation, when promoters portrayed North America as a hunter's paradise. Colonial charters, meanwhile, guaranteed colonists the right to hunt. Because colonists associated hunting with both aristocratic…
GLENNA MATTHEWS. The Golden State in the Civil War: Thomas Starr King, the Republican Party, and the Birth of Modern California
Glenna Matthews has written a rich book about a short life in a young state. Her subject, Thomas Starr King, was born in New York City in 1824 and died in California in 1864. Born to an artisan-turned-minister father, King became one of Massachusetts's brightest luminaries before he was thirty. As a Universalist and then a Unitarian, he traveled New England's lyceum circuit and preached before some of its most respected congregations. He knew and…

Critical Time Intervention: An Empirically Supported Model for Preventing Homelessness in High Risk Groups
Critical Time Intervention (CTI) is designed to prevent recurrent homelessness among persons with severe mental illness by enhancing continuity of care during the transition from institutional to community living. After providing the background and rationale of CTI, we describe the elements of the model and summarize the status of existing research on its effectiveness. We then briefly illustrate how the CTI model has begun to be adapted and impl…
Whose Knocking? Spiritualism as Entertainment and Therapy in Nineteenth‐Century San Francisco
In concentrating on spiritualism’s mediums and intellectual captains, scholars have paid little attention to the movement’s meaning to average séance‐goers. An investigation of spiritualism in nineteenth‐century California and Nevada – and especially in San Francisco – shows that mediums offered their patrons a valuable social product by tying together religion with entertainment and therapy. In doing so, spiritualists created a cultural technolo…

The Hunter's Aim: The Cultural Politics of American Sport Hunters, 1880–1910
American sport hunters of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries “aimed” to reclaim the frontier past, to sanctify individualism, and to demonstrate their superiority to women and immigrants. Sport hunters, however, achieved ironic results. In proposing that hunting had made Americans great, hunters forgot that Americans had once attributed their greatness to farming. In protecting their sport as a rite of individualism, hunters gave n…
