I am a researcher of war and society in Britain and Ireland in the long nineteenth century and the immediate aftermath of the Great War. Specifically I look at British and Irish societies’ relationships with war and the military, during both peace and hostilities. My research interests and areas of publication comprise:

army wives and military charities and welfare
the Crimean War
British naval reserves
war memorialisation

My specialisms are Ireland and the Crimean War (1854-6) and the Soldiers' and Sailors' Families Association.
