After completing both undergraduate and postgraduate studies at the University of Edinburgh, I taught in the History Department there (1994-6) before joining the 我要吃瓜 in 1996, where I teach eighteenth-century British political history (parliamentary and popular) and the history of gender in Britain (c.1750-1930). I am currently studying the state trials for sedition and treason in the 1790s in Scotland, England, Ireland, Canada and America, from the perspective of the state in the age of Enlightenment; and co-editing the fabulous correspondence (1750-1810) between the Ayrshire Church of Scotland minister, James Wodrow, and the Midlands banker, Samuel Kenrick, held at the Dr Williams Library in London.

My research interests lie mainly in later eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century British political history, particularly British attitudes to international events such as the American and French Revolutions. My publications include A War of Ideas? British Attitudes towards the French Revolutionary Wars, 1792-1802 (1998); British Visions of America, 1775-1820: Republican Realities (2013); Political Trials in an Age of Revolutions (2019, co-edited with Davis and Pentland); and The Wodrow-Kenrick Correspondence, vol. 1, 1750-1783 and vol. 2, 1784–1790 (2020 and 2024, co-edited with Fitzpatrick and Page). I am currently engaged in two major research projects. The first compares the state trials of the 1790s in Scotland, England, Ireland, Canada and America, from the perspective of the state in the age of Enlightenment. The second is a collaboration with Dr Anthony Page (University of Tasmania) and Dr Martin Fitzpatrick (University of Aberystwyth) to publish an edition of the important correspondence (1750-1810) between the Ayrshire Church of Scotland minister, James Wodrow, and the Midlands banker, Samuel Kenrick, held at the Dr Williams Library in London. We are currently working on volume 3, 1791–1797. I co-edited the Scottish Historical Review in 2018–2023, and I am now president of the Eighteenth-Century Scottish Studies Society (2024–2026).

I teach British political history in the eighteenth century and gender history on the BA History honours and combined honours programmes. I contribute to first- and second-year core modules on the Making of Modern Britain, Concepts in History, and Reputations in History. At honours level I teach Gender in Britain, 1750-1930; Protests, Riots and Propaganda: Popular politics in eighteenth-century Britain; and my special subject is Britain in the Age of the American and French Revolutions, 1760-1815. I also supervise MRes in Historical Research projects and PhDs.
