Editorial Policy: The Society for the History of the Germans in Maryland is dedicated
to the preservation and dissemination of materials pertaining to the history of the Germans
in North America, particularly the state of Maryland and the mid-Atlantic region. The Report
is a regular publication of the Society. It appears in January of even-numbered years and
seeks to provide a forum for the discussion of scholarly issues which are central to the
Society's purpose. The editorial board of the Report invites articles which deal with any
aspect of the history and culture of the German element in North America, from materials
which support genealogical research (the Society itself does not undertake such research) to
studies which examine the sociological, historical, or literary aspects of the German-
American experience. Articles which focus on the Germans in Maryland are especially welcome.
Manuscripts are accepted at any time and should be directed to the editor at the
address listed below. All submissions should be made in triplicate and should contain no
information which identifies the author or would otherwise prevent an anonymous review of
the manuscript by members of the editorial board. Authors should include a single separate
sheet identifying themselves and providing other relevant information. All submissions will
be read by at least two members of the editorial board.
Authors will normally receive notice of the outcome of the review process within six
weeks of receipt. Accepted articles will be published in the next issue, and authors can expect
to see their work in print within eighteen months of the original submission. Manuscripts
should be in English and follow the form suggested by the Modern Language Association.
Non-English quotations should be accompanied by an English translation.
Final copies of all manuscripts accepted for publication must be submitted to the editor
on diskette or as attachments to an e-mail. The author will be asked to provide both a print-
able file in Microsoft Word format and an ASCII text version with note numbers typed in the
text and notes and references made explicit at the the end of the essay. Anyone unable to pro-
vide a file in Word format should provide a paper copy of the final manuscript with italics,
indents, notes, references, etc. in proper typographical form.
Manuscripts should be directed to:
