Our fourth symposium will focus on Sean Wilentz's"Bush's Ancestors," which appeared this weekend in the NYT Magazine. Cliopatricians participating in the symposium should send their contributions to manan*at*uchicago*dot*edu. I will post them here on Friday 21 October.

Contributions from other bloggers are genuinely welcomed at their own blogs. Please send me a link to your post and I will include the link in the symposium post. Our desire is to have as broad a discussion as possible.
