Biographical / Historical

Eric Klingelhofer was a professor at Mercer University from 1985 to 2015. He received his BA from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1971; an MA from the University of Birmingham (England) in 1973; an MA from The Johns Hopkins University in 1985; and the PhD from the Johns Hopkins University in 1985. Klingelhofer specializes in medieval English history and, as an archaeologist, studies the earliest English colonial enterprises in North America.
