State of the Field for Environmental History: A Spot for Researching Minerals in the Workplace such as Asbestos, Silica, Talc, and Lead.

My paper on the State of the Field for Environmental History is completed. It is about 14 pages with 62 footnotes and was submitted in the United States History in the World class. For those who like to read scholarly research, you can find a copy of the paper at https://theasbestosblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/State-of-the-Field-Essay-Env-History-1282023.pdf. My goal is to use this paper as a platform both for my PhD in History applications and as a foundation for my third and final thesis required for my current Masters in History program. Good stuff.

As to the relevance of asbestos and other minerals found in the work place to environmental history, it is best if you just read the following two pages in the paper:

Should be fun. By the way, Rose’s book is free to download if you would like to read more about asbestos as depicted and used the literature over the years.
