THE JOURNAL OF THE CALIFORNIA HISTORICAL SOCIETY --
SOON TO BE PUBLISHED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA PRESS

A quarterly journal published by CHS since 1922, California History features illustrated articles by leading scholars and writers focusing on California and the West from pre-Columbian to recent times. The journal regularly features compelling essays augmented by content-rich images, book reviews, CHS collections, and commentary—all examining the ongoing dialogue between the past and the present.

From time to time, California History publishes special themed issues devoted to subjects such as El Clamor Público, the crusading Spanish-language Los Angeles newspaper published from 1855 to 1859 (2007); the lyrical, narrative, and influential poet Robinson Jeffers (2010); and the extended commentary and examination of Richard White’s bold and controversial book published in 2010, Railroaded: The Transcontinentals and the Making of Modern America (2011).
