  • Editor's Note
    Editor's Note When Gary Nash asked me at the American Historical Association an- nual meeting in Chicago in January, 1995, if Pennsylvania History would con- sider publishing the essays written to honor Richard S. Dunn on his retire- ment from the University of Pennsylvania, I was quick to state that we would find a way to do it. Not only would the stellar line-up of Richard's students enhance our publication, but his career mirrored what I have been trying to do with the journal: demonstrate the centrality of Pennsylvania's experience to the mid-Atlantic region and further beyond. And the Philadelphia Center, which Richard founded and still directs, has provided me with the most con- genial and intellectually stimulating companionship imaginable since I first began attending in 1982. Fortunately, thanks to a generous grant from the Barra Foundation we are able to publish this collection as a supplement to the four regular issues our subscribers will receive for 1997. I am most grateful to Michael Zuckerman for putting me in touch with Robert L. McNeil, Jr., the Foundation's Presi- dent, whose support for the Philadelphia Center and the promotion of schol- arship in early American history in general has done so much for the field. It was a real pleasure to work with Joseph Illick, Nicholas Canny, and Gary Nash, each of whom assumed primary responsibility for a third of the essays in the area he knows best: family studies, trans-Atlantic connections, and race and class relations, respectively. Many of the contributors are old friends; some have become new ones.
