Description
Summary:While following in their predecessors’ footsteps in the basic format of the journal, the high standards for scholarly excellence, the inclusion of a wide range of work, and the occasional themed issue with guest editorial assistance, Robert and Ben have also introduced several new features. Venturing beyond the core of the journal—the articles chosen from the submissions that landed on their desks (or laptops) and the book reviews ably edited by Elaine Frantz—Ben and Robert arranged a historiographical intervention feature, aimed at reflecting on classic books. The “teaching forum” on John Green's “Crash Course U.S. History” videos also merits note, as do the fora on the revised Advanced Placement U.S. History exam and the Reacting to the Past educational games.
