From 1985 to 1991 Historicism offered 98 papers and six supplements. For the first six years it placed special emphasis on Dan 11. In 1991 the theme topic switched from Daniel to the book of Hebrews. And of course there were papers on Revelation to go with those on Daniel.

Ninety-three of the ninety-eight papers, and five of the supplements, that appeared in Historicism were written by Frank Hardy, so for the most part "us" is me, if we could say it that way. All other writers who supplied papers for the journal had one or more terminal degrees, whether in law, or medicine, or biblical studies. The one exception to this generalization was a supplement (1989) which constitutes the entire text of its author's M.A. thesis.

Now retired, I was a computer programmer for the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists from 1996 to 2012. As regards academic formation, I have a B.A. (Union College, 1969) in theology, with minors in music, history, and Greek; a Ph.D. in linguistics (University of New Mexico, 1979), where my research was on the grammatical category of aspect in Navajo (a Native language spoken in the Southwestern part of the United States);<1> and an M.A. in Old Testament (Andrews University, 1983) focusing on Daniel 11.<2>
