Twenty-five years ago, the National Trust committed itself to creating a “forum” to ask tough questions, share ideas and information, inspire action, and celebrate accomplishments. Forum Journal has been a key channel for this work. Our Fall 2012 edition features seven articles that have made a particular impact in the field – we call them game changers. These game changing articles challenged us to think in new ways and reprinting them offers a chance to look back.
