“Hands down the best textbook on the market.”

“A brisk, fair and clear introduction to Irish history.”

“The most impressive work of its kind. Highly readable, very clearly organized, and unfailingly balanced and judicious.”

“The publication of Ideas of the Liberal Party in the Parliamentary Studies Series is a great credit to Dr. Coohill. It is an important piece of scholarship has made an influential contribution to early Victorian political history.”

“Coohill’s work demonstrates a mastery of historical literature, builds upon it, and modifies it. This is a very important book which all future scholarship on parliamentary behavior will have to take into account.”

“Coohill shows a deft touch and nuanced understanding of liberal political culture [and] his mastery of the sources for 19th century British history demonstrates expertise many American academics in his field cannot match.”

“I was introduced to Joe by a fellow writer who has great respect for his work. I needed a complete rewrite of a project proposal immediately. Joe was in London at a conference, but began work on the flight back. He was able to comprehend quite difficult concepts for someone new to the project and put together an outstanding document more quickly than I thought possible. I cannot recommend Joe Coohill highly enough.”

“Joe Coohill writes with the authority and knowledge that one would expect from an Oxford Ph.D. Lo and behold, he also writes with style, verve and humour. On top of that, he meets deadlines and needs no editing. I would call him an editor’s dream, but he might put editors out of business.”

“I’ve relied on Joe Coohill to write short articles based on deep research that distill vast swaths of history and current events into clear, accessible, and fun language. It’s a challenge beyond most of the freelancers I’ve worked with, but Joe hit it out of the ballpark every time.”
