American Historical Periodicals from the American Antiquarian Society, Part I–V
This collection contains familiar and unusual historical magazines sharing firsthand accounts and opinions regarding important eras in American history, from the colonial period through the Civil War.
American Historical Periodicals from the American Antiquarian Society provides a history of the American people and a testament to the growth of the nation from the colonial period through to the twentieth century. The periodicals focused on American concerns and were predominantly published in the United States or Canada, though some were published overseas by Americans living abroad.
“We chose Gale as our partner because of their commitment to helping us share the rich periodical holdings of the American Antiquarian Society as widely as possible among libraries of all sorts and their enthusiasm for developing state-of-the-art technology tools to help researchers to unlock these remarkable (and heretofore underutilized) resources of nineteenth-century journals and magazines.”
