The American Historical Review
The American Historical Review is a quarterly academic history journal published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the American Historical Association, for which it is its official publication. It targets readers interested in all periods and facets of history and has often been described as the premier journal of American history in the world.[1][2]
In the 2011 Journal Citation Reports, the AHR had the highest impact factor among all history journals.[3]
Editorial board[edit]
The editorial offices are located at the American Historical Association headquarters in Washington DC, where a small staff produces the publication under the guidance of a 20-member advisory board. From the October 2007 issue until 2011, the journal was published by the University of Chicago Press. As of 2023, the journal has been published by the Oxford University Press.[6]
The editorial board of the AHR is composed of scholars in a number of fields and subfields, including medieval and early modern Europe, western and eastern Europe and Russia, East and South Asia, Latin America, early and modern US, Middle East, and methods and theory.[7]
