The History Department's very own Geoff Cunfer has just been awarded the 2006 Theodore Saloutos Book Award for his On the Great Plains: Agriculture and Environment (Texas A&M University Press, 2005). This award is given by the Agricultural History Society for the year's most outstanding published work in American agricultural history. It was presented last month at the society's annual meeting in Cambridge, Massachusetts. May your work continue to flourish, Geoff!
