Interview with Dr. Michael Birkner

Abstract

In this, our eleventh volume of the Fairmount Folio, I am inaugurating a new segment of the journal, an interview with an established historian. It will mirror a concept begun in our sister publication, The Historian, the journal of the national history honorary, Phi Alpha Theta. This segment is meant to provide wider understanding of the variety of experiences and scholarship found among historians. We hope you will enjoy these interviews.
