Bio

I am a retired USAF Colonel who is pursuing a PhD in European History.  Broadly, I am interested in researching topics relating to strategy and tactics during Napoleonic era, for which the Napoleon Collection will serve as an excellent foundation.

Fields

Major Field: Napoleon and the French Revolution

Minor Fields: Medieval History, European History to 1789, and History of Science

Dissertation

My dissertation focuses on Napoleon's famous Imperial Guard, particularly the Horse Grenadiers of the Imperial Guard.  In examining the military, social, political, and cultural formation of this elite unit, I hope to explore notions of merit, talent, prestige, and achievement within the Napoleonic army.
