Nicole Eustace, Organization of American Historians Distinguished Lecturer and New York University history professor, will discuss her Pulitzer Prize-winning book, Covered with Night: A Story of Murder and Indigenous Justice in Early America, which tells of the ramifications of a violent encounter between two white fur traders and an Indigenous hunter in 1722. A historian of the early modern Atlantic and the early United States, Eustace specializes in the history of emotion. She is also author of Passion Is the Gale: Emotion, Power, and the Coming of the American Revolution, and of 1812: War and the Passions of Patriotism, as well as coeditor of Warring for America: Cultural Contests in the Era of 1812.
