I was born in the UK, studied at Cambridge and Princeton, and then taught American history in the US, Canada and the UK (an interesting experience!). I'm currently Professor of North American History at the University of Cambridge. I've written about American history and politics for the New York Times, the New York Review of Books, the London Review of Books, the Nation magazine, the Guardian, and many other publications. I'm the author of six books including the forthcoming THE HATED CAGE, which will be published by Basic Books in 2022. I write a lot about the tortured relationship between racism and ideas of equality in American history. When I'm not teaching or researching I like to hike and to garden (neither very successfully) and occasionally to tweet. I live with my wife, my two teenage kids and two tremendous cats in Cambridge, and when Covid is behind us I can't wait to visit the United States again.
