1. NEWS FROM THE CMH

It is with great sadness that we report the untimely death of Mr Gerry Martin. Gerry was a most generous benefactor and enthusiastic supporter of the Centre, especially of the 'Growth of the Skilled Workforce 1500-1750' Project (1992-1994 www.history.ac.uk/cmh/projects.html#growth), and until recently served as one of the CMH's Patrons. He also funded the seminar and conferences in global history at the IHR. A true philanthropist and an exceptional gentleman, Gerry will be sorely missed.
