The Massachusetts Historical Review (MHR) publishes essays, photo-essays, historical documents, and review articles each autumn. Every issue offers pieces rich in narrative detail and thoughtful analysis, prepared for all readers interested in the history of the Commonwealth, from its settlement to the 21st century.
Beginning with a new series in 2021, each issue of the MHR will focus on a specific theme connected with Massachusetts history, although essays in the volume need not be limited to Massachusetts or New England topics. See Submissions at bottom of page for more information.
Subscriptions are $30.00 for individuals, $35.00 for institutions, and $45.00 for all non-US addresses; online access to the most recent issue is available through JSTOR’s Current Scholarship Program ($20.00 for individuals; $25.00 for institutions). Back issues of the MHR are available for sale through the MHS or online through JSTOR.
Members and Fellows of the MHS receive the MHR free as a benefit. Any MHS Member or Fellow who wishes to access current or past issues of the journal through JSTOR can contact MHS Membership to receive an access token.
