Administrative History for Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park - Notice of Intent to Fund Task Agreement: The National Park Service (NPS), through the Midwest Regional Office (MWRO), requires the performance of research and writing of an Administrative History (AH) for Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park (NHP). The information contained in the Administrative History is essential for present and future interpretation and resource management. This Administrative History is a comprehensive synthesis of primary and secondary source material that is pertinent specifically to Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park. The AH will analyze the partnership model used by the park and examine whether the model is a rational one that can be applied in other situations. The transfer of knowledge to park staff, NPS officials and the public including interested scholars and lay readers is the principal goal of the project. The Organization for American Historians is a member of the Desert Southwest CESU and has extensive experience with conducting the research activities required to complete the administrative history. The Organization of American Historians has teamed up with the National Park Service to bring the best, most up-to-date scholarship to bear on the presentation of history to the American public. Through the OAH's collaboration with the National Park Service, OAH members have an opportunity to apply their historical expertise to a public purpose: to build bridges between scholarship and a public audience, and between the academy and the world of public history. Collaborative projects include scholars' visits to national park sites, administrative histories, historic resource studies, national landmarks theme studies, peer review of interpretive material, curriculum development, and conferences and seminars.
