Claiming Land, Claiming Water: Borders and the People who Crossed them in the Early Modern Atlantic
Tuesday, June 23rd, 2026, at 12:00 PM EST
Please join us on June 23rd at 12:00 pm EST for a Fireside Chat discussion with the authors and co-editors of Claiming Land, Claiming Water: Borders and the People Who Crossed Them in the Early Modern Atlantic. (Penn Press, 2026)
Casey Schmitt will host a roundtable discussion with the editors and two authors in the new edited collection, Claiming Land, Claiming Water: Borders and the People Who Crossed Them in the Early Modern Atlantic. (UPenn, 2026). Co-editors Rachel Herrmann and Jessica Choppin Roney will be joined by authors Christian Koot and Samuel Truett to discuss this collaborative endeavor. The authors in Claiming Land, Claiming Water investigate how and why some people imagined and made claims to bounded space—and how and why other people confounded or challenged those claims—through a formative period of intense change in North America and the Atlantic world (c. 1630–1860).
