  • Brickyards and Frameworks: a Retrospectus and Prospectus on Vermont History Writing
    Brickyards and Frameworks: A Retrospectus and Prospectus on Vermont History Writing Under the stimulus of the breakup of some old models of national, state, and local history, and armed with a panoply of new methods and models for dissecting our past, we have assembled a brickyard of small studies. Many of these reveal small gems of new insight about the lives of individuals, the look of communities, and the operation of institutions in our immediate neighborhood or region.

By Michael Sherman Bassett’s Bibliography (1981) ust over two decades ago, Tom Bassett did what I have been asked to do for this symposium: to take a reading on what has Jbeen accomplished in Vermont history and assess future needs and directions. He had just completed the work of compiling a bibliog- raphy of Vermont history, volume four of the Bibliographies of New England History, a series that continues to this day.
