About Me

Dave.Nelson: A life-long Anglophile, I am currently Professor of History at ABAC @ Bainbridge (formerly Bainbridge State College). My specialties include U.S. History, Environmental History, British history, Cultural History, Public History, and History of the American South. I advise the Honors Program. I also sponsor the History Club, the Model UN club and co-sponsor the 42 Club (a genre fiction book club). In addition, I serve as Director for the Scotland Study Abroad Program. I hold a BA in History from the University of North Florida, and a MA and PhD in History from Florida State University. I worked for three years as a ranger with the Florida Park Service and six years as an archivist with the State Archives of Florida. I have had publications in the Gulf South Review, Florida Historical Quarterly, and Southern Studies, as well as several book chapters. My book, How the New Deal Created Florida Tourism: The CCC and the Florida Park Service will be out next year from the University Press of Florida.
