M-276: Western History Association Archives Collection

HISTORY: The first meeting of what was to become the Western History Association was held in Santa Fe, New Mexico in October 1961. The meeting was organized by a small group of history "buffs" and academic historians. Since then, the organization has met annually in a wide range of western, and sometimes eastern, cities bringing together a diverse group of western writers, academic historians, public historians, and enthusiasts. Since 1961 the WHA has grown dramatically in size and in its publications.

SCOPE: This collection was donated by the Western History Associate in 2006 and contains the records of the organization.
