Hal K. Rothman (1958–2007) was a historian, professor, radio show host, editor, public intellectual, and prolific author. Noted environmental history scholar Char Miller called him "a dynamic teacher, riveting speaker, compelling scholar, and sharp-tongued pundit."[1] The writer Will Sarvis called Rothman "one of the best editors" he had ever worked with.[2] University of Colorado historian Patricia Nelson Limerick (author of the famous book, Legacy of Conquest) described Rothman as a key contributor in the late 20th century renaissance of American West history. Limerick confirmed Rothman's almost unworldly level of energy, "Especially [in] the rate of publications -- thoughtful, and really worthwhile books."[3] Rothman made numerous national media appearances in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Chicago Tribune, and on CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, and other places.[4] He was inducted into the Nevada Writers Hall of Fame in 2004.[5]Rothman died of Lou Gehrig's disease on Feb. 25, 2007.[6] Selected publications- America's National Monuments: the Politics of Preservation.
