I am very happy to announce that
Dan Ernst, Georgetown Law School, is joining the

Legal History Blog as an on-going co-blogger. Readers will remember Dan's recent stint as a great guest blogger. I'm sure you will enjoy his posts, and I am very much looking forward to working with him.
Dan's works include
Lawyers Against Labor: From Individual Rights to Corporate Liberalism (1995), awarded the Littleton Griswold Award from the American Historical Association, and he is co-editor with Victor Jew of
Total War and the Law: The American Home Front in World War II (2003). Links to some of his works are
here. Most recently, he published LAW AND THE STATE, 1920–2000: INSTITUTIONAL GROWTH AND STRUCTURAL CHANGE in Volume 3 of the new
Cambridge History of Law in America. Dan's essay can be found
here.
Dan has served as co-editor of "
Studies in Legal History," the leading book series in legal history sponsored by the
American Society for Legal History and the
University of North Carolina Press. In 1996, He was a Fulbright Research Scholar at the National Library of New Zealand in 1996, the Jack and Margaret Sweet Visiting Professor of History at Michigan State University in 1998, and a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellow in 2003-04.
(Dan is on vacation, and so may not show up on the blog for a number of days. I am getting him signed on now before I take off later this week.)
Welcome, Dan!
