[haw-info] HAW Notes

[Jim O'Brien]

1.  The basic Historians Against the War statement, overwhelmingly approved
in a ratification vote open to everyone on the “HAW-Info” e-mail list
earlier this month, is posted on the HAW web site at
http://www.historiansagainstwar.org/statement.html.  Everyone who is in
substantial agreement with the statement is invited to fill out a form at
the bottom of the web page and become formally a member of HAW.


2.  The HAW-sponsored panel discussion at this year’s AHA convention, on
“The Bush-Cheney Legacy,” is now available from Radio Free Maine in various
formats (DVD and VHS video, dual audio CD and audiotape cassette).  For
ordering information contact Roger Leisner, rleisnerrfm at yahoo.com or (207)
242-0643 (cell phone).  The five featured speakers were Alice
Kessler-Harris, David Montgomery, Vijay Prashad, Ellen Schrecker, and
Barbara Weinstein.  HAW is also preparing edited versions of the talks in
printed form, available later this spring.


3.  Larry Wittner, longtime activist in HAW’s collaborating organization the
Peace History Society, has prepared an abbreviated version (for college
classes and general readers, of his scholarly Struggle Against the Bomb
trilogy.  Entitled *Confronting the Bomb: A Short History of the World
Nuclear Disarmament Movement, *it will be available in paperback from
Stanford University Press (http://www.sup.org/book.cgi?id=9646) and from
