Born in Brooklyn, New York, Daniel McInerney majored in history at Manhattan College, where he was named to Phi Beta Kappa.

A Traveller's History of the USA, cover

Dr. McInerney is the author of two books: The Fortunate Heirs of Freedom: Abolition and Republican Thought (1994) and The Travellers' History of the United States (2000). His articles have appeared in Civil War History and The Journal of the Early Republic. Since 1994, he has served as an associate editor of The Social Science Journal. His current research involves nineteenth-century interest in mnemonics (the science of improving memory).

Dr. McInerney teaches the lower-division U.S. history survey as well as upper-division courses on the Age of Jefferson and Jackson, Civil War and Reconstruction, and American Religious History. At the graduate level, he leads seminars in American Studies as well as history.

In addition, Dr. McInerney is "co-principal investigator" and executive historian on the million-dollar "Teaching American History" grant that the History Department (and local school districts) received from the U.S. Department of Education.
