I hope to organize a session to propose for the American Historical Association
meeting in New York City in January 1997. The deadline is a few weeks away.
USA-presenters need to be members of the AHA at the time of the convention.
My own paper tentatively will look at the rise and fall of prohibition as a
method of temperance reform in English politics, ca. 1891-1908. The obvious
contrast is with the situation in the United States and other English-speaking
countries where some form of prohibition flourished in the early 1900s. It
makes sense to have a cross-national panel. I presume that there would be two
or three papers. May I ask anybody interested to post me at my email address
and not through the listserv group?
