I read a lot of urban history, and almost all of the scholarship aims at great cities. But the urban imperative is people settling in proximity to each other for mutual benefit. This dynamic is worthy of study regardless of whether the subject is the largest metropolis or a longhouse village. So I like that you have decided to study Wichita because somebody needs to do it. Last, like settlements themselves, your work is stronger as part of a collaboration.
