Pulling from Outside, Pushing from Inside
In 2011, the Organization of American Historians (OAH) released Imperiled Promise: The State of History in the National Park Service, a multi-year team-authored study commissioned by the NPS Chief Historian. The study offered twelve findings assessing strengths and challenges facing history practice across the agency, and made almost one hundred recommendations that aimed to support that work. The report’s fifth anniversary offers an opportunity to review how Imperiled Promise’s proposals have fared. We find that, although the report has been positively received and many of its perspectives and specific suggestions embraced, the persistent structural issues it identified continue to hinder full realization of the parks’ promise. The OAH, National Council on Public History (NCPH), American Historical Association (AHA), and other professional associations, as well as their members, must continue to advocate strongly and consistently for NPS history.

Gender, Artisanry, and Craft Tradition in Early New England: The View through the Eye of a Needle
The study of the domestic economy of early American women has flourished and significantly advanced the understanding of the \"female economy.\" Rural clothing production was an artisanal craft that attracted large numbers of women in the century before industrialization. Close examination of the working world of Northampton tailor Catherine Parsons suggests new ways to think about not only gender divisions of labor in the American clothing trades on the eve of industrialization, but also the larger world of 18th-century craft.
