Hughes Ken Walters Professor Eric Jarvis Charles L. Williamson Dr. & Mrs. Galen Jones William Wofford Robert Kerstein Kathleen M. Wolan Richard Lane FROM THE EDITORS In the nineteenth century, Thomas Carlyle asserted that history "is at bottom the History of the Great Men who have worked here." For generations this declaration raised little question among historians who focused on political developments and looked largely at the past from the top down. However, beginning in the 1960s, a new generation of historians suggested that the past appeared different if viewed from the bottom up. Examinations of history from the perspective of common people far removed from the heady world of high politics brought a flood of path-breaking studies of long-neglected people such as plantation slaves, wage-earning women, and working-class immigrants. The new social history also sparked a running debate about which actors - great men or ordinary people - deserved primary emphasis in the writing of history. This issue of Tampa Bay History does not pretend to answer that question, but it does reflect the variety of approaches and perspectives now used by historians. In the article entitled "Spans of Time," David W. Adams examines the contributions of George S. Gandy, Ben T. Davis, and Courtney Campbell - men whose names are familiar to residents of the Tampa Bay area. Adams highlights the foresightedness and entrepreneurship of these men who spearheaded the development of the two spans that first linked Hillsborough and Pinellas counties. The article "Florida Fliers during World War II" shifts the focus to emphasize the contributions of two women who piloted planes during wartime. In telling the story of little-known women, authors Thomas Reilly and Lynn Homan emphasize individual accomplishments that have largely escaped the attention of historians. Two other articles focus on local African Americans and provide both new information and new perspectives. In the article entitled "African Americans in Hillsborough County, Florida, during the Reconstruction Era," Kathleen S. Howe shows how different the period after the Civil War looks if examined from the point of view of former slaves living in a sparsely settled area. Her study also challenges readers to think about politics in new ways that make the daily lives of ordinary people central to struggles over power. In another article, "African Americans and Chinsegut Hill," Michael Lee Correia documents the lives of several black families in Hernando County and their relations with the famous owners of the Chinsegut property, Magaret Dreier and Raymond Robins. In focusing on blacks, these articles reveal significant ways in which African Americans influenced events. Finally, this issue includes a look at the First Christian Church of Tampa, which is celebrating its centennial anniversary, and once again, the focus shifts to an institution whose leading members ranked high in Tampa society. The editors hope you enjoy this issue, which marks the completion of twenty years of this publication. STEPPING INTO FREEDOM: AFRICAN AMERICANS IN HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, FLORIDA, DURING THE RECONSTRUCTION ERA by Kathleen S. Howe The end of the Civil War ushered in the Reconstruction era which brought new realities to Southerners, both black and white. For blacks, emancipation marked the beginning of freedom; for whites, an end to uncontested control. Conservative whites who had previously dominated society would have to compete for power with white Unionists and those they had once enslaved. What emancipation ultimately meant for all was dramatic change. While much of this occurred in high profile battles at the state and federal levels, the process of change was also highly contested in local confrontations that pitted blacks against whites in communities across the South. African-American resistance to white attempts to limit the independence of freedpeople appeared in everyday struggles as blacks formed their own households, negotiated new labor relations, sought education, and wielded the vote. The outcome of these contests varied from community to community, and this study highlights developments in Florida’s Hillsborough County, a rural frontier locale where Reconstruction unfolded in ways that varied from those experienced in areas dominated by the plantation economy. Most Reconstruction scholarship deals with “cotton belt” blacks rather than their counterparts residing in developing areas like Hillsborough County. These studies can mislead, implying that the process of Reconstruction followed the same course regardless of the setting. For example, in North Florida counties, large black populations accentuated white fears, bringing determined efforts to control freedpeople. Hillsborough County, by contrast, was sparsely populated and underdeveloped. The entire population in 1860 was only 2,981, with blacks contributing 566 of that number. So while African Americans made up about 44 percent of the state’s populace and several northern counties had large black majorities, Hillsborough County’s black population averaged from 18 to 20 percent of the total throughout the Reconstruction era from 1865 to 1877.1 The smaller black population in Hillsborough County undoubtedly explains why the area experienced less

  • 268 Kansas History William Allen White and the Russian Revolution
    William Allen White (1868-1944) was the editor of the Emporia Gazette, and in his capacity as a journalist, he was invited to attend an aborted peace conference at Prinkipo in Turkey in early 1919, a trip that instilled in him a lifelong interest in Russia and its politics. Courtesy of the Library of Congress, Prints and Photographs Division, Washington, D.C. Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains 38 (Winter 2015–2016): 268-282 268 Kansas History William Allen White and the Russian Revolution by Norman E. Saul illiam Allen White is best known as a homespun and witty commentator on Kansas and American political, social, and economic life of the first half of the twentieth century. He accomplished this through editorials in his Emporia Gazette, syndicated columns and articles, and several popular books directed at mainstream, middle-class Americans. His role in and writings on international affairs are played down, in fact barely mentioned, not only by his biographers but by White himself in his classic autobiography.1 Yet White’s Wextensive correspondence, newspaper accounts, and many editorials reveal considerable interest in the far abroad, especially in what was happening in Russia, and to Russia, through the impact of World War I and by the consequences of the long-term and deeply ingrained radical socialist movement. My interest in this other side of the “sage of Emporia” stemmed from learning of his “surprise” appointment by President Woodrow Wilson as one of two American delegates to the aborted Prinkipo Conference in early 1919.2 A subset of the Paris Peace Conference, this was an attempt by the peacemakers at Paris to bring the various Russian political factions, including the Bolsheviks, together to try to sort out their differences in a neutral setting.

I begin, then, thanking all of those professors and teaching assistants who helped cultivate my interest in history and my skills as a historian. I am especially grateful to those faculty members who aided me in this project. Professor Kobrin, my thesis seminar instructor, and Professor Amar, my second reader, were both tremendously helpful as I navigated my way through a research project of this size for the first time. Their efforts have clearly enhanced my own, and their dedication to my project is sincerely appreciated. I also appreciate the generous help of the staff of the Rare Books and Manuscripts Library here at Columbia. I am thankful to my fellow thesis seminar classmates who spent time each week to read my work even as they had their own theses to complete. Learning and writing with them was a pleasure. Finally, I am indebted to my parents and sisters for all that they do for me.
