""After the Imperial Turn" is an important collection of essays marking the 'coming of age' of 'new imperial history.' One of its great strengths is its range--from the big picture to the local study, from the pedagogic to the institutional, from the British exemplar to a number of comparative perspectives, from the U.S. to the Caribbean and Hong Kong. This is an essential read for aspiring young historians."--Catherine Hall, author of "Civilising Subjects: Metropole and Colony in the English Imagination 1830-1867"
