Bryan D. Palmer , who teaches at Queen's University, has two books appearing in 1994. The first, Capitalism Comes to the Backcountry: The Goodyear Invasion of Napanee, will be published simoutaneously by Between the Lines (Canada) and Monthly Review Press (United States). Also in press is Objections and Oppositions: The Histories and Politics of E.P. Thompson, forthcoming with Verso (England). A long-time resident of the backcountry, Palmer is also a perinanial objector. These two aspects of his life are unrelated, or so he thinks. (Oxford 1992)
