The William and Mary Quarterly forum on the recently discovered John Dickinson documents, revealing his previously unknown secret attempt to prevent the American Revolution, is now available online! The WMQ has generously made the issue open access for the next month. muse.jhu.edu/issue/57168

The issue is out! Once it’s available online (it’ll be open access for thirty days!), I’ll post about the forum on the Dickinson documents discovery that I was so excited to help organize.

An essay by me and Jane Calvert on the John Dickinson documents discovery that reveal his previously unknown secret attempt to prevent the American Revolution. It previews the scholarly forum on the documents that will be published soon. lawliberty.org/the-secret-e...

Not every day something you worked on gets on the front page of the print edition of the NYT!

Happy 250th! For an interesting wrinkle to the whole thing, check out the exciting discovery below. 👇🏻

Before the U.S. Constitution there was the Articles of Confederation, the drafting of which began before independence was even declared. Listen to me and Jane Calvert of @jdproject.bsky.social discuss it with @lizcovart.bsky.social on @bfworld.bsky.social. benfranklinsworld.com/episode-445-...

Major props to the WMQ team, led by @juliagaffield.bsky.social and Meg Musselwhite, who moved heaven and earth to get the documents online by today. The WMQ has been amazing from start to finish. @oieahc.bsky.social
