A New Generation Of Editors, Lester J. Cappon

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

As the number of projects increased, more editors were needed; and young historians were gradually attracted toward editing, to some degree impelled by the crisis in the educational marketplace. Editors of the 1950s and '60s had "learned to do by doing," applying their knowledge of historical methods to the task.

To the literary art the whole commonwealth of other arts must bow down am resign …
