Recent Articles, Books, Pamphlets, Dissertations, and Other Publications in Indiana History Compiled by Leigh Darbee Editor’s Note. This list of articles, books, pamphlets, and disserta- tions published from 1991 through 1995 is intended as a biblio- graphic contribution to Indiana’s history. The list will normally appear in each March issue of the Indiana Magazine of History. We recognize that the list is neither complete nor systematic in cover- age, and we hope that readers will help us by sending items for pos- sible inclusion. We are especially interested in listing publications that make some contribution to understanding Indiana’s past but that are not usually reviewed in the IMH. Generally, we will not list newspaper articles or accounts of local historical society activi- ties, but printed pamphlets as well as journal articles may be listed. All such items for the March, 1997, issue must be received by November 1, 1996. Many people have contributed to the present list, but major responsibility has rested with Leigh Darbee of the Indiana Historical Society. 60th Anniversary Issue, Outdoor Indiana, LX (MarcWApril, 1994). 1855 Atlas Reprinted from Map of Marion County, Indiana (Knightstown: The Bookmark, 1994).
