Our guest today is the guy who led the Federal Trade Commission's Bureau of Consumer Protection team that created the ubiquitous yellow Energy Guide labels on your appliances. Oh yeah, he's also an award-winning historian of the American Civil War. Hampton Newsome recently retired from a long career as an attorney with the Federal Trade Commission and the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Hampton did his undergraduate degree at Duke University and earned his JD from the University of Virginia School of Law. He is the author of several books, including Richmond Must Fall: The Richmond-Petersburg Campaign (Kent State University Press), The Fight for the Old North State: The Civil War in North Carolina January-May, 1864 (University Press of Kansas), and most recently Gettysburg's Southern Front: Opportunity and Failure at Richmond (University Press of Kansas), which won the Emerging Civil War Book Award ad the Edwin C. Bearss Book Award for Oustanding Scholarship in Civil War History.
We'll talk being a non-academic historian, doing archival research, Civil War Roundtables, Danny Ferry, Uncle Tupelo/Wilco, among other pressing issues. We really enjoyed this one!
