The 2005 Cliopatria Awards Nominations:
BEST SERIES OF POSTS


by Cliopatria


NOMINATIONS ARE CLOSED

Please submit, in comments below, your nominations for the best series of posts on a history blog (written since 1 December 2004). [registration not required, but the usual rules of civility and conduct still apply] Nominations will be accepted from November 1st through 30th.

Please include an URL for the series (all posts, or a post within the series that includes links to the whole thing). You may nominate more than one series in this category, or nominate individual blogs or bloggers in other categories.

If you want ideas of blogs or writers to nominate, see the History Blogroll or past editions of the History Carnival. If you're not sure whether a blog or blogger qualifies as"history," nominate them anyway and the judges will make a final determination. If you have questions, feel free to contact the chair of the committee:

Judging Committee: Sharon Howard (chair), Another Damned Medievalist, Tim Burke. [Judges are ineligible to win awards they are judging, but feel free to nominate them for something else!]

Go To: Awards Index, Group Blog, Individual Blog, Newcomer, Post, Writing.

I would like to nominate Mark Grimsley's series of posts on Custer and the Art of the Blog:

http://www.warhistorian.org/blog/index.php?entry=entry050307-174827

It makes a strong case for the value of academic blogging.

Not sure if this counts as <em>history</em> but it's cognate.

Eric Muller - 11/10/2005

I nominate the lengthy series of posts by me and Cliopatrian Greg Robinson refuting the historical claims in Michelle Malkin's book "In Defense of Internment." The posts are gathered in one place at http://www.isthatlegal.org/Muller_and_Robinson_on_Malkin.html

Prof. Grimsley has many good posts and series of posts, but I found this one of the most interesting. Just as important as the posts themselves are the comments on his blog and the comments he links to on h-war.
