About the Expert: I teach a wide variety of courses in U. S. history, military history, and the history of technology for the University of Memphis, and am also an adjunct professor for the U. S. Naval War College for which I teach strategy and policy to mid-grade officers. I launched and direct the History Department's online BA program in 2008, and it remains one of the few online undergraduate history program offered by a major university. My recent publications include From Torpedoes to Aviation: Washington Irving Chambers and Technological Innovation in the New Navy, 1877-1913 (2007), “The Greely Relief Expedition and the New Navy,” International Journal of Naval History 5 (December 2006), which won the Rear Admiral Ernest M. Eller Prize in Naval History, "The Experimental Era: U.S. Naval Aviation through 1916" in Douglas V. Smith (ed.), One Hundred Years of Navy Air Power (Naval Institute Press, 2010), and Twenty-Five Years of Living in Leather: The National Leather Association, 1986-2011 (2012), which explores the history of the first successful national SM (or BDSM) organization in the United States.
