We are committed to completing this project over a ten-year period that began in 2020. With this in mind, CWRGM is seeking a three-year NEH Humanities Collections and Reference Resources (HCRR) grant of $349,862 to provide critical funding for the next three years of this project. We are a past recipient of NEH HCRR support (2020-2023) and we are proud to report that we are meeting our objectives despite the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Preparation for publication of volumes 22 and 23 of the papers of John Adams (1735-1826) and volumes 16, 17, 18 of the Adams Family’s correspondence. (36 months)

The Adams Papers Editorial Project at the Massachusetts Historical Society (MHS) is the authoritative scholarly edition of the diaries, letters, official records, public writings, and literary miscellanies written by three generations of the Adams Family of Massachusetts, including Abigail Adams, John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Louisa Catherine Adams, Charles Francis Adams, and their families. Since 1956, the project has published 56 volumes, with 49 freely available online (https://www.masshist.org/publications/adams-papers/). This family record charts the generational shifts in American life from the Revolution through the Civil War. As the nation’s 250th anniversary approaches, editors are focused on the founding generation’s efforts to establish “A More Perfect Union,” a complex saga that will unfold in 17 more volumes by 2039. The Adams Papers has received continuous aid from the NEH since 2003; we seek further support to make this unparalleled resource accessible to all.

Completion of volume 6 and preliminary work on volume 7 of The Papers of George Catlett Marshall.

Edit the sixth of seven volumes of George C. Marshall's papers. The sixth volume includes documents (telegrams, letters, memorandums, speeches, etc.) written during his tenure as U.S. Secretary of State (January 1947-January 1949) and as head of the American Battle Monuments Commission and the American Red Cross (January 1949-September 1950). Nearly all documents published will be by Marshall, as opposed to staff-drafted for Marshall's signature. The decisions taken and activities undertaken in international relations by the United States during the early Cold War period (1945-50) continue to be controversial, much studied by students and professionals in many disciplines, and of influence in recent events.

The volume covers one of the most important periods in US and world history from September 1949 to October 1959.
