"Between 1972 and 1982 I [Davis Bitton] was part of the team of historians located in the Church Office Building under the direction of Leonard J. Arrington. It was a golden decade-- a brief period of excitement and optimism-- that someone has likened to Camelot. But it came to an end. This is not an attempt to write the complete history of those ten years, with their achievements and frustrations. To tell anything like the whole story would require a book. Others participating in the same activities-- and certainly those looking on from the outside-- would see them somewhat differently or at least would emphasize different things. I confidently predict that one of two dozen different oral or written versions of these events will make the rounds during the next few years. What I offer here is modest, partial, and tentative."
