STARKVILLE —Articles by Mississippi State’s top researchers on Ulysses S. Grant are featured in the latest issue of the Journal of Mississippi History.
With the theme “Grant and Mississippi,” the JMH spring/summer publication, Vol. LXXX, includes the writings of John F. Marszalek, the issue’s managing editor and special projects coordinator of MSU Libraries’ Ulysses S. Grant Collection.
Marszalek said MSU and MDAH’s partnership on the new JMH issue “bodes well for the future of history within our state.” The issue, he said, is being sent to Mississippi Historical Society members throughout the state and is reaching history scholars in the nation’s leading academic institutions.
“Americans can now have a different view of the Magnolia State, realizing that this center of the Confederacy has now become the place to study the most important historical event of the national past,” he said
Mississippi State is one of only six universities in the nation housing a presidential library.
