Distributed by the University of Nebraska Press for the University of Idaho Press

Each of us in the field of local history remembers the moment when someone says, "Next year is the centennial. What are we going to do?" The first answer hopefully will be to pick up a copy of Keith Petersen's Historical Celebrations. The book is full of suggestions and checklists as well as sample press releases and a list of resources for technical assistance to assist with the best possible historical celebrations for communities.
