Note from the Editor
By the time this issue reaches subscribers, I will be in Ankara, Turkey, where I will spend a semester teaching a seminar on the Gilded Age and Progressive Era at Bilkent University, a program described by Russell L. Johnson in a thoughtful essay in the October 2002 issue of this journal (Vol. 1, no. 4). Bilkent's American history and American Studies programs have recently intertwined with this journal and its sponsoring society in a variety of ways. Arrangements for my trip were set in motion by the late and much- missed member of Bilkent's faculty and SHGAPE's council, Thomas Winter. A future colleague in teaching United States history at Bilkent, Edward Kohn, happens to have an article in this issue revisiting the events in 1884 that first brought Theodore Roosevelt to national prominence and started to his alliance with Henry Cabot Lodge. And a former Bilkent faculty member, Kate Sampsell, who now teaches at the United Arab Emirates University, has begun doing occasional copyediting for us. Dr. Sampsell brings needed experience to this task; while a doctoral student at Georgetown, she worked as copyeditor and editorial associate for American Quarterly.
