Give Me Liberty! is beloved by students and instructors alike because it pulls the puzzle pieces of the past into a coherent picture. Learning not only the “what” but also the “why” helps students take away key information and develop historical and critical thinking skills for the course and their lives beyond it.

Kathleen DuVal is Professor of History at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where she teaches early American history. Her research focuses on how various Native American, European, and African people interacted from the sixteenth through the early nineteenth centuries. Her recent books are Independence Lost: Lives on the Edge of the American Revolution, which won multiple awards for her rich retelling of the history of the Revolutionary Era as experienced by enslaved people, Native Americans, and women living on Florida’s Gulf coast; and Native Nations: A Millennium in North America, which was awarded the 2024 Cundill Prize and the 2025 Bancroft Prize. DuVal’s additional awards include the Guggenheim Fellowship in the Humanities, a National Humanities Center Fellowship, and a postdoctoral fellowship from the Andrew W. Mellon Fellowship.

Her research and teaching interests bridge the fields of social and political history and focus on collective action, state building, reform movements, and politics. Her most recent book, The War on Alcohol: Prohibition and the Rise of the American State, won acclaim for excavating the significant but neglected state-building legacies of national Prohibition.
