VISUALIZATION , *CARTOGRAPHY , *HISTORY , *EMIGRATION & immigration , *HISTORIOGRAPHY , *MIDDLE Ages - Abstract
This paper reviews digital methods of scholarship for visualization and mapping, and it then shows how creative and experimental visualization can help us to study the extensive networks that lay behind human mobility, from trade to war, communication, pilgrimage, migration, and much else. In the process, the paper will familiarize historians with the key aspects of digital methods from amalgamating large quantities of data to finding patterns within that data. This discussion of visualization along with the sample maps should demonstrate that digital methods offer a new tool to enhance traditional scholarship and shape richer facts and arguments.

- Abstract
This paper examines the authorship of a portrait of Dragoljub Draža Mihailović, the leader of Yugoslav royalists during the Second World War, published in the earlier issue of The Historian. It establishes that it was penned by one of the British liaison officers at Mihailović's headquarters rather than Konstantin Fotić, the Yugoslav ambassador to the USA, as it was erroneously claimed in the title of that document and the introductory text. It also briefly discusses how the content of this document contributes to the historiographical debate on Mihailović, especially his (mis)treatment in British official history.
