6.5 hours writing, 1 hour phone meeting, page count = 202
No time blog, must keep write.
Finished the chapter on the critical juncture (1880-1910). Woo-hoo! Feels good to get that one in place.
Had a good conversation with a Nicaraguan historian that Villager Marco Mojica put me in touch with. Nicaragua's a fascinating case for the "in comparative perspective" chapter, as its party cleavage neatly maps onto a geographic division; the role of international interference (from the U.S., mainly) is much larger; and the security forces were beyond politicized, they were personalized, turned in the '50s into the personal army of the dictator Somoza (well, one of them; it was a dynasty). It'll be fun to write that part of that chapter up.
As Villager Val Wang put it a couple of weeks ago, "WORD COUNT, BITCHES!"
