Segal remembrance of colleague David Smith published
A column remembering University of Maine American history professor David Smith by History Department colleague Howard Segal appears in the November 2011 issue of American Historical Association’s Perspectives on History journal. Segal remembers Smith, who died in 2009, as a prolific author whose diverse research interests ranged from Maine history to science, forestry, agriculture and climate change. Among his books are The First Century: A History of the University of Maine, 1865–1965 (1979) and The Maine Agricultural Experiment Station: A Bountiful Alliance of Science and Husbandry (1980).
