The link does not link to the internal professor search engine... Which yields this and picture of a “Gumby” with horn rim glasses who STILL enjoys fancy food and expensive wine... to excess most certainly. Just saying. Look at this “curriculum vitae” of the “essential” studies of .....for God’s sake- food and wine. And the role of Irish merchants in creating the Bordeaux market. This dude is a real “claimer” with the Cameron middle name— particularly if one was a REAL Cameron clan you would not calumny a person without proof- there would be Clan consequences even today.
What’s more— there is a distinct element of jealousy— this guy, after all this education, passed over by Duke and is not even a full professor— he’s assistant teaching professor in.... food science. Pretty lame. Willing to bet his career was “affected” by being a commode hugging drunk- who now feels edified to express bullcrap about #1 in his Class roommate at Yale. Just cause he can— as a good tavern Democrat. The FBI will put some heat on him. What a clown. But, please-— y’all call the #, and saturate his email. Data dump time. Nothing nasty— just ask him why he’s not a full professor of anything... important (other than consumption of beverages which apparently he has done to excess for quite some time, while “researching”!). What a baby huey load of whooey gourmand-— an effete low achieving snob— perfect lib.

Biography
Charles Ludington received his undergraduate history degree from Yale University and his master’s and doctoral degrees from Columbia University. He has published essays on the Huguenot diaspora in Ireland, British and Irish political thought in the late-Stuart era, and the history of wine consumption in Britain from the mid-seventeenth century to the mid-nineteenth century. His first book, The Politics of Wine in Britain: A New Cultural History (2013, paperback 2016), used wine consumption as a window onto English, Scottish, and British political culture from Cromwell to Queen Victoria. He was elected a fellow of the Royal Historical Society in London in 2014. Since earning his doctorate in 2003, Ludington has taught Early Modern and Modern British history, European history, European intellectual history, and food history at Duke University, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and North Carolina State University. He has won three teaching awards, including lecturer of the year in the College of Humanities and Social Sciences at North Carolina State University, where he was made a Teaching Associate Professor of History in 2013. From 2015-17, Ludington has been a Marie Curie Senior Research Fellow at University College Cork and Universite de Bordeaux-Michel Montaigne. He is investigating the role of Irish merchants in the development of Bordeaux wine into a luxury product during the period 1700-1855.
