I have
considerable interest in my native state of Kansas and its history. Until
March 2006, I had been for more than six years the founder and volunteer coordinator
of a major project aimed at web-publishing the entire 46-year output of the Kansas
Historical Quarterly (estimated 22,000 pages). This involved a massive effort by
several other volunteers and myself in scanning, transcribing, editing,
proofing, and HTML-composing of both text and images.

THE KANSASIAD: Prologue ... the first 41
lines of an epic intended to comprise over fifteen thousand lines
(considerably longer than the 12,000 lines of Milton's Paradise Lost); the reader will
express deep gratitude that the threatened completion of this work has not
yet occurred. LINKS UPDATED 11 DEC 2008 |
